Healthier Life Steps
The AMA National Service Project is "Healthier Life Steps."

The AMA website has information, handouts and posters. There are several ways you can obtain information:

2. Email Healthier.LifeSteps@ama-assn.org for questions and information.

As physicians, let's be examples to our patients by making healthier life choices for ourselves as well.
Planning to Make a Charitable Contribution?
We urge you to consider making tax-free contributions to two very worthwhile charitable programs near and dear to us -- the Scott A. Gunder, MD, DCMS Scholarship Fund and the DCMS Alliance.
The Gunder Fund annually awards a $1,500 scholarship to a 2nd-year medical student at the Penn State College of Medicine. (View our Scholarship page for information on this year’s recipient.) To make an online contribution to the Gunder Fund, go to The Foundation of the Pennsylvania Medical Society and designate your gift to the Gunder Scholarship Fund.
The Dauphin County Medical Society Alliance provides a tremendous amount of value in our community and is continually recognized for its public outreach programs. To make a contribution to the Alliance, make your check payable to the DCMS Alliance, note that it is a contribution, and mail it to the DCMS Alliance, 777 E. Park Dr., Harrisburg, PA 17111. Thank you for your generosity!
