Community Fundraising Events
Many dedicated individuals, businesses and community groups host fundraisers to support the mission of our academic health sciences center. Volunteers in our community are constantly gearing up to raise awareness of and support for research, treatment and patient care at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and UMass Memorial Medical Center.
From car washes to golf tournaments, marathons or other road races, the options for events and fundraisers are endless. For UMass Medicine Development Office information and community fundraising event planning guidance, please review the community fundraising toolkit.
