The CMA Foundation awards small grants to California medical student organizations to support projects that promote community health and well-being. The foundation reviews applications during the first week of each month and then awards grants ranging from $250 to $1,000 to worthy applicants.

All allopathic and osteopathic medical student organizations are eligible. Priority is given to projects for which funding traditionally is not provided by medical schools or community sponsors.

Applicants must supply a 250-word-maximum statement, on one page, describing the project or program and how it contributes to the community. It must be signed by the medical school dean to affirm the “good status” of the
student organization.

Applications should be received in the CMA Foundation offices by the last business day of each month to be considered the first week of the next month.
