About

Join Brad Waitzer and make a $3 million impact for EVMS medical students! The above-average debt our medical students accrue motivated longtime EVMS supporter, Brad Waitzer, to issue a challenge to the EVMS community. Your gift will help reduce debt for medical students with financial needs and ensure EVMS can continue to recruit the best and brightest students.
