Over the past decade, UVA Health has pioneered some of the best medical ideas in the world. From uncovering the connection between the immune system and the brain to developing a smartphone app that will help type 1 diabetics sleep through the night without fear, the impossible is fast becoming possible at UVA Health. As a donor, you can help put our best ideas into action, every day, for every patient.
Time is of the essence. We're not miles away from incredible breakthroughs, we're within inches. It’s time to accelerate innovation and discovery in our labs. We must change how we deliver care in our clinics, hospitals, and the communities we serve. We need to prepare the next generation of doctors, nurses, and scientists so that we leave no patient behind.
Private support helps us send patients home from the hospital tomorrow, instead of weeks. It allows visionary medical and nursing students to improve global health this year, not someday. It helps us cure macular degeneration in our lifetime, not in our children’s lifetime. The impact of philanthropy is immeasurable.
The stories of hope and healing below illustrate the impact people just like you have on the patients and families who turn to us for care.
