In the wake of the devastating tornado that destroyed a number of physician practices in Joplin on May 22, 2011, the Missouri State Medical Association has established a special relief fund to aid your physician colleagues and their staffs there. The MSMA Health Education Foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, is now set up to receive contributions and coordinate the distribution of funds to physician practices that were affected by the storm.
All proceeds will be used to provide needed assistance to physicians and their practice employees who suffered significant property loss, suffered significant physical injury, lost immediate family members, or face months of unemployment due to the storm.
Contributions are tax-deductible, and every penny of your donation will go to physicians and their employees who were affected by the tornado.
