The ACOFP Foundation serves as the charitable arm of the American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians (ACOFP). While ACOFP focuses on advancing the profession of osteopathic family medicine, the ACOFP Foundation supports these efforts through scholarships, grants, and programs aimed at fostering the next generation of osteopathic family physicians and promoting the values of the profession. Together, we work to ensure the continued growth and excellence of osteopathic family medicine. Partnerships include programs such as Future Leaders, In-Service Exam Support, and preceptorship, to name a few.
The American Osteopathic Foundation is dedicated to advancing the osteopathic profession through various forms of support including scholarships, research grants, and community health initiatives. The foundation works to foster the growth and development of osteopathic medicine by recognizing and supporting students, physicians, and programs that demonstrate a commitment to the holistic principles of osteopathic medicine. With its focus on promoting wellness and preventive health care, the AOF actively contributes to enhancing patient care and community health outcomes, aligning with the broader goals of advancing the osteopathic philosophy across the healthcare industry. Given the strategic synergies, the ACOFP Foundation and AOF partner on a variety of initiatives. The AOF was a seminal, diamond partner who helped kick off the ACOFP Foundation's $2M Initial Certification Fund in an effort to ensure osteopathic distinctiveness for years to come through AOBFP certification.
The ACOFP Foundation serves as an ongoing supporter of the AOF through sponsorship of the AOF Gala and an annual contribution to the Jeffrey Grove, DO, LGBTQ+ Pride Scholarship.
The ACOFP Foundation annually supports scholarships for osteopathic students attending the Family Medicine Education Consortium (FMEC) annual meeting. This support ensures that osteopathic medical students can gain exposure to family medicine and primary care, experience presenting posters, and apply to family medicine residency programs they meet at the meeting’s Residency Fair.
The ACOFP Foundation thanks our donors for supporting the osteopathic family and our continuing growth. Now more than ever, we need your help to ensure the future of osteopathic distinctiveness so that we can positively impact access to high-quality health care for all.
