The Hippocratic Society
Help us form and sustain clinicians in the practice and pursuit of good medicine. Our goal this year is $50,000.
Our rapid growth shows a real hunger for a return to virtuous and good medicine. To meet it, our greatest need is to build our capacity: more people to support our chapters, symposia, and national programming, so we can welcome the schools and clinicians who are asking to partner with us.
40+
chapters at medical schools and institutions
40+
symposia and lectures since our start
Three goals guide everything the Hippocratic Society does.
Support the growth of HippSoc chapters at medical schools, where students and physicians build lasting communities dedicated to their moral and professional formation.
For example: support one chapter, $2,500.
“I have been so enriched by conversations in our chapter meetings, and discussions with future physicians that fill me with hope.”
Connect medical students and young physicians with experienced mentors who help them develop the character, judgment, and habits that excellent patient care requires.
For example: a staff member for mentoring programming and fundraising, $75,000.
“It has been a privilege to sit around a table over a meal, listening and contributing to difficult clinical scenarios alongside role models and clinicians from various fields.”
Bring together physicians, educators, and students to explore what it means to practice good medicine, and share those insights with the broader medical community.
For example: our national conference, $100,000.
“Gathering over a meal to discuss the cases and virtues, we unpack not only who we ought to be as physicians but also remember what the medical profession can be again.”
Any amount is welcome and counts toward the same goal. These are a few ways to picture your impact.
