This fund is intended to provide financial assistance to learner(s) in the doctor of medicine degree program when challenged with unexpected and exceptional circumstances. Learners may apply for these funds when they have exhausted all other resources. The amount of funds available each year is valued at a portion of the income on the endowment.
