Thank you for your ongoing support of our students, our department, and the broader community.
Though official “Give Day” has ended, there are still many impactful ways to support our program, including contributing to the DPT Scholarship Endowment, the REACH Clinic, the Physical Therapy Adult Neurologic Clinic, or the Physical Therapy Fund, among others.
Your generosity helps us navigate ongoing budget challenges, sustain our community-centered clinics—such as the no-cost orthopedic REACH Clinic—and provide vital scholarships. It also supports faculty and student research presentations at conferences, travel, and other essential program needs.
With your support, we can continue providing the resources our students need to thrive—both during the program and in their professional journeys.
