The University of Washington is committed to the idea that there's no age limit when
it comes to good health.

they’re conducting for women with breast or ovarian cancer.
Give to a fund that supports the UW’s efforts in health and medicine:
Department of Medicine Academic Support Fund
This fund supports teaching, research, and other activities that promote and enhance the department’s academic mission. This includes medical school instruction, postgraduate training, guest lecturers, and research in primary care and other Medical specialty programs.
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.
Comparative 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.
Biochemistry Discretionary Fund
Unrestricted support for the Department of Biochemistry within the School of Medicine. This fund allows the department to use your contribution most effectively and strategically, for example to leverage other monies for new faculty recruitments, or to share the costs of critical new equipment with other departments.
Public Health Excellence Fund
This flexible fund allows the Dean to apply it where the need is greatest, i.e., as seed money to launch new courses and to provide an orientation that gives students the resources they need to maximize their education.
