OAFP Foundation
Mission
Investing in future family physicians to serve our Oregon communities.
Over the past twenty years, the OAFP/Foundation has actively supported medical students exploring rural family practice, medical students matching in Family Medicine Residency Programs and many family medicine student interest group activities. We’ve provided anti-tobacco education in elementary schools and local and regional ethics lectures.
Proceeds will go directly to mentorship, networking, education and scholarship programs and activities. Our goal is to raise funds from a variety of sources including generous contributions from our members, outside corporations and grants, and expand upon new opportunities for the next generation of family physicians – both medical students and Family Medicine Residents.

Please consider continued support as NONE of this would be possible without your generous gifts.
