The IDSA Foundation is the preeminent leader in providing educational and financial resources for future Infectious Diseases health care providers. Without the generosity of our donors, we cannot boldly fund strategies that allow funding for groundbreaking research, develop new and innovative programs and expand those that have proven to inspire brilliant minds in ID.
Individual donors like you are uniquely positioned to play a role in partnering with us to help further our mission and to significantly invest in helping to free the world from infectious diseases that claim over 17 million lives a year.
Since its inception, the IDSA Foundation has taken major steps to impact the field of infectious diseases by empowering the next generation of leaders, investing in research, and advocating for patient care. Each year, the IDSA Foundation provides funding for mentorship, scholarships and awards grants to hundreds of medical students, residents and fellows with the goal of providing a framework to encourage them to seek a career in infectious diseases.
