Give to a fund that supports the UW’s efforts in health and medicine:

Oncology Program Support Fund
Supports the research efforts in the Division of Oncology at the School of Medicine.

Psychiatry Discretionary Fund
This fund allows the department to pursue its mission by supporting research, teaching, patient care, and other departmental priorities at the discretion of the chair. For instance, this fund is used to recruit exceptional faculty members, support promising neuroscience and health services research in areas such as Alzheimer's Disease and depression.

Hematology Research/Leukemia
Medical advances in the Division of Hematology rely upon private gifts. While the division receives support from government agencies, foundations, and other funders, those resources are often restricted to very specific purposes. Gifts made to this fund will support various promising research efforts in Leukemia, clotting disorders, gene therapy, and stem cells, and will benefit our patients and the larger biomedical community.

Bioengineering Leadership Fund
Unrestricted support for the Department of Bioengineering. Gifts are used at the discretion of the Chair to fund programs and activities, including student activities, for which state funds are not available.

Lab Medicine Discretionary Fund
This fund allows the department to pursue its mission by supporting research, teaching, patient care, and other departmental priorities at the discretion of the chair.
