"As physicians, we all are givers. We’re constantly giving and we’re used to giving to organizations other than the Academy and its Foundation. But, the Academy has given all of us so much and helped us in so many ways. I think we can give back to help fund programs today that help to secure our future. This is why I hope you will consider a gift of $1,000 or more in support of the vital programs administered by the Academy and Foundation." -- Ron Kuppersmith, MD, MBA; President 2009/10


Join the Millennium Society today!

The Millennium Society, established by the Board of Directors, is a group of Academy members who believe in the Foundation's mission and generously provide financial support to help us achieve the Foundation's initiatives. Membership in the Society is achieved by either making an annual gift of at least $1,000, or cumulative gifts throughout the year that equal $1,000 (or, $250 for residents and young physicians). The program year runs January 1 through December 31.

Ideas for Giving
As with all charitable gifts to the Foundation, your contribution will advance the art, science, and ethical practice of otolaryngology--head and neck surgery. Contributions may be directed to specific programs such as research, education, resident resources, international, and humanitarian outreach, or you can request the Board of Directors to use your donation to fund the area of greatest need.

• A $100,000 gift to establish a named fund in your honor (or in the honor of your mentor or family member) that will provide long-term funding for the Foundation's programs.
• A gift of $50,000 to ensure your Life Membership in the society and to provide much needed funding to continue our work in research.
• A gift of $50,000 to endow an International Visiting Scholars Grant.
