WAFP-Foundation - What's Coming Up

DEAR FAMILY MEDICINE SUPPORTERS AND CHAMPIONS!

Thank you for all your generous contributions to help us carry out our mission and fund the future of family medicine by introducing medical students to family medicine, engaging them in family medicine-focused opportunities, and giving Wisconsin's Family Medicine residents tools to be successful. We could not accomplish these things without your gifts.

Quarterly drawings have been an important fundraising strategy for us the last few years with the benefit of giving you, our donors the chance to win prizes. We hope you consider to continue support by participating in these fundraisers by donating to the cause with monetary donations as well as donating prizes.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Becky Wimmer

WAFP Foundation - Executive Director

Although we have wrapped up our 2025 Students to FUTURE campaign, the WAFP-Foundation has started to prepare for 2026! This year, we proudly provided funding for 28 Wisconsin medical students to attend. Next year, we’re aiming even higher!

You can help make that happen by supporting our next Quarterly Drawing and entering to win a luxury getaway at the Sundara Inn & Spa! This package includes a 2-night stay in the Exclusive Suite, a $50 dining credit, and a salt session for each guest.

For every $100 you donate to the WAFP-Foundation’s Students to FUTURE Campaign, you will receive one entry into our two-week drawing from August 5-19. A full $800 scholarship donation will give you 10 chances to win this luxurious getaway. Your contributions will help the foundation send Wisconsin medical students to AAFP’s 2026 FUTURE Conference in Kansas City.

We need your support to reach our quarterly drawing goal of raising $8,000 towards the $40,000 needed to send 50 students. One lucky winner will be randomly selected on August 20!


This prize package was generously donated by WAFP Past President, Beth Menzel, MD, FAAFP.


*Note: This spa package is valid Monday through Thursday only, based on availability, excluding holidays and peak times. Not valid with any other promotions, specials, or group rates. Certificate is valid through August 2026.

Special Note:

The WAFP-Foundation is currently recruiting Champions for 2025. Champions donate a prize package to the Foundation which is used in a two-week drawing each quarter to raise funds to support the Foundation's mission and programs. Due to the generosity of our members, the WAFP-Foundation has raised over $60,000 since introducing the virtual drawings!
