GW COVID-19 Resident Physician Aid

The current global health crisis reminds us how vital it is to invest in our future physicians and health care providers.  GW resident physicians are beginning their medical careers at an unprecedented time.  They are on the front-lines learning and treating patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.  For residents, this is a uniquely challenging time, yet it calls for them to rise to the occasion and practice medicine under extraordinary circumstances.

Residents are taking on great personal risk to serve and protect our community, an oath they pledged to uphold, but as they try to shield their families and loved ones they need our support to continue.  
Your gift helps meet the most urgent needs including:

• Alternative lodging to allow residents to isolate themselves from loved ones
• Daycare options, as most childcare facilities have closed
• Protective Equipment, to ensure their health and safety 
• Hot meals when they’re needed most
• Your gift allows GW resident physicians to continue to be there for each other, our patients and the community.
