Lead Annual Donors

Supporters of the LEAD Fund Invest in the Future of the Field

AMIA and the LEAD Fund Advisory Committee are proud to present those who made a donation to the LEAD Fund in 2019. Their generosity provided 8 students with travel awards to attend the 2019 AMIA Annual Symposium in Washington, DC. The awards provided the means for travel associated with attendance at the AMIA Annual Symposium including meeting registration, transportation and lodging.

AMIA lauds the giving spirit behind these donations with a special thanks to recurring donors who remain committed to our mission, those who donated to the LEAD Fund for the first time and those who made anonymous donations. Travel awardees were honored at the annual Gala. We look forward to watching these students have successful careers and become industry experts and leaders whose contributions will continue to advance the field. Thank you for supporting the LEAD Fund’s initiative, focused on creating a robust and sustainable fundraising program for AMIA that will support important programming that:

• Promotes diversity in terms of our membership
• Supports trainee engagement in AMIA events
• Develops a future generation of AMIA leaders through awards/recognition programs
• Allows current informatics professionals to "pay it forward" and helps grow the community
