Donor Naming Opportunities

Currently, through generous gifts from forward-thinking ACMT members, the Medical Toxicology Foundation proudly offers several unique, named award opportunities. These opportunities can uniquely reflect the professional contributions or interests of their donors. Named awards are provided for donors who commit to a gift of $50,000 or more. They can also be set up a number of ways, for example as a one time gift or a restricted investment fund. 

Aligning with the intentions of their donors, named awards are customizable and can include travel awards to the ACMT Annual Scientific Meeting, research grants, education programs, lectureships, recognition awards, among others. The MTF’s current named opportunities are enhancing the entire field and medical toxicology community. We would be happy to share our thoughts or hear how your ideas for a named award can strengthen the MTF’s mission. Please contact MTF President Erica Liebelt, erica.liebelt@acmt.net, or Mimi Bajagich, mimi.bajagich@acmt.net.
