Giving Tuesday

It's #GivingTuesday!

Our donors make our programs for MedChi members and the general public possible, and for this, I thank you. Due to the generosity of our donors, here are some of the Center’s accomplishments over the past year:

• Increased the number of clients seen by the Physician Health and Rehabilitation Program to the largest number in years. We hired an additional clinical manager to accommodate the surge in our case load.
• Created a Museum of Medicine at MedChi, featuring a display showcasing the diversity of our Boards of Directors, and items from our collections, including a 1797-1802 ledger compiled by Francis Sappington, one of the 101 founders, and a number of historic bookplates, collected by Marcia Noyes, our librarian. Through these displays and collections, we can trace MedChi’s 223 illustrious years of history and service.
• Hosted the annual Hunt Lecture and Ethics Lecture, both of which were well attended and garnered great reviews.
• Conducted major repairs on our 1909 building, including re-pointing the brickwork on the façade of the building.
• Investigated the causes of maternal mortality in Maryland, which continue to increase year-over-year, despite all best efforts to lower the numbers.
• Conducted 20 domestic violence prevention trainings, attended by 641 participants.

MedChi’s members and friends are also MedChi’s strongest and most loyal supporters. We value this support and encourage you to make a tax-deductible gift through the Center for a Healthy Maryland. Your contribution will help the Center continue to help other physicians who are struggling with addictions and other issues which are affecting their practices.
