The MSU PA program held the Bridge the Gap fundraising event fall 2021. The vision of the PA program is to assign more clinical rotations in rural underserved communities, in hopes of increasing the likelihood that graduates will practice in these areas. One strategy to achieve this vision is to use the Bridge the Gap event to raise funds in order to help defer student clinical training housing costs in rural underserved communities. This first-time event proved to be very successful with over $2,000 raised. To date, two students have directly benefited from this campaign with more beneficiaries to come this year. Plans are to make the Bridge the Gap an annual fall event.

 

We would like to thank donors who made the 2021 Bridge the Gap campaign a success.
