20<strong>03</strong> Foundation Report<br />
Dear LAFP Member:<br />
In 1987, the <strong>Louisiana</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Family</strong> <strong>Physician</strong>s Foundation was<br />
established to promote and support<br />
innovation and improvement <strong>of</strong> the<br />
specialty <strong>of</strong> <strong>Family</strong> Practice. Through<br />
our combined efforts, our 20<strong>03</strong><br />
Foundation accomplishments include:<br />
• Funding for LSU-New Orleans, LSU-<br />
Shreveport and Tulane FMIG programs<br />
• Funding for student attendance at<br />
the National Conference <strong>of</strong> Students<br />
and Residents<br />
• Funding for student and resident<br />
attendance at the <strong>Louisiana</strong><br />
<strong>Academy</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Family</strong> <strong>Physician</strong>s<br />
Scientific Assembly<br />
• Payment <strong>of</strong> dues for <strong>Louisiana</strong>’s first<br />
year medical students<br />
• Presentation <strong>of</strong> the Gerald R.<br />
Gehringer <strong>Family</strong> Practice Award to<br />
a Senior at LSU School <strong>of</strong> Medicine<br />
in New Orleans.<br />
While we are on the right track, we<br />
can not let the momentum stop. We<br />
must continue our quest to be the<br />
foremost champion <strong>of</strong> <strong>Family</strong><br />
Medicine in <strong>Louisiana</strong>.<br />
So, remember, it is member support<br />
that enables the Foundation to continue<br />
its mission to attract, encourage<br />
and educate students in the field <strong>of</strong><br />
family medicine. Please take a<br />
moment to make a contribution to the<br />
LAFP Foundation in support <strong>of</strong> these<br />
worthwhile efforts. Mail your check<br />
