Your Support Matters
The Office of Development and Alumni Relations works with alumni, friends, and donors to support students, faculty, research, and outreach initiatives at the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM). Whether you’re making a gift online, making a donation of property, remembering VCOM your will, or have some other gift in mind, we can help you meet your needs and make a difference to VCOM.
Gifts are vital to the mission of VCOM and the College offers many rewarding opportunities to match the interests of every donor.
