The World’s Health is Our Health
This fund supports the Institute’s mission to improve the lives of people in North Carolina and around the world. As an example, our emerging pathogen specialists train staff across the state to respond to new infectious disease threats, and have established one of only a dozen medical units in the U.S. to care for these infections. This team works in West Africa to better understand how diseases like Ebola emerge and spread and how to treat and prevent them.
Will you make a gift to support global health?
Our multidisciplinary investigators lead national and international studies on HIV, STDs, vector-borne diseases, women’s health, cancer, and much more--here in our state and at global sites around the world. They are passionate about research excellence and training that nurtures emerging scientists, physicians and public health practitioners, striving for the highest attainable outcomes in patient care.
If you make a gift during this campaign, your gift will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $1,000, by UNC Health’s Board of Directors. No gift is too small!
Gifts to the Excellence Fund are unrestricted which means they go to work right away to support the greatest needs, including education and training, research opportunities, professional development and operational excellence.
Thank you for supporting our mission!
