Students To FUTURE
The call for dedicated, caring family doctors in Wisconsin is more important now than ever before

Dedication

The call for dedicated, caring family doctors in Wisconsin is more important now than ever before as there are growing concerns about the future workforce. In an effort to engage and educate medical students about the opportunities in family medicine, the WAFP-Foundation is aiming to send 50 students to AAFP's FUTURE Conference.

Importance

We all know the importance of this project in ensuring a strong future for family medicine in Wisconsin. As an academy, we have a significant influence in determining the success of this campaign. In eleven years of supporting this program, we have provided funding for 442 students to attend FUTURE (formally National Conference), and 87% of those students have matched in Family Medicine. That is an incredible return on investment!

We appreciate your generosity and support for advancing family medicine in Wisconsin.
