The Society of 1828Imagine helping to finance the education of deserving young students who would have little chance for a health care education without your support C9 or enabling MCG to recruit the world’s best physician-scientists C9 or funding research that will eliminate incalculable suffering. Countless people contribute to MCG’s mission in one way or another—and every contribution is sincerely appreciated. But a dedicated few make the difference in ensuring a critical mass of excellence, both for current and future generations. This has been the case since MCG’s inception in 1828: a small, core group making the commitment to chart the university’s future, and making a huge contribution to society in the process. Can we count you among them? The MCG Society of 1828 invites you to consider a legacy that will improve society for generations to come. The Society of 1828 recognizes the year that MCG first opened its doors by honoring those who have kept those doors open for almost 200 years C9 and counting. If you already support MCG, thank you. Your loyalty and generosity have helped MCG make great advances in improving health while reducing the burden of illness in society. If you haven’t supported MCG in the past, or if you’d like to multiply the benefits of your altruism, now is the time to consider joining the Society of 1828. Society members give cumulative gifts of $1 million or more to MCG in cash and/or through estate-planning methods. What does this generosity mean to MCG and your loved ones? It means that MCG can break new ground in the biomedical sciences. As Georgia’s health sciences university, MCG is on the cutting edge of advances in every segment of health care. Facilities including adult and children’s hospitals, 20 academic/research centers and three research institutes provide second-to-none research and treatment for everything from common to life-threatening illnesses and injuries. MCG advances already are improving prevention, diagnosis and treatment for countless diseases. Consider that cancer, almost certainly fatal just a few short decades ago, is now highly treatable in most cases. MCG’s own research has helped turn the tide, and the university collaborates with other facilities nationwide and beyond to bring the latest advances to its patients. MCG’s primary mission is to prepare future generations of health care providers and biomedical researchers, ensuring that each generation enjoys better health than the one before. Its Schools of Allied Health Sciences, Dentistry, Graduate Studies, Medicine and Nursing offer second-to-none training for the most compassionate and high-achieving students you’ll find anywhere. Will you help keep the momentum going by becoming one of the dedicated few to optimize the university’s potential? Your support can make a critical difference in helping MCG reach the next level as a premier health sciences university.
