While the fmSTAT, Munson, and Marsland funds represent our current funding priorities, we have many other funds that provide vital support to our department, including:
Dr. Saba Masho Endowed Scholarship in Epidemiology
This scholarship fund was initiated in 2018 by a contribution from Dr. Abraham Teklu in loving memory of his wife, Saba W. Masho, MD, MPH, DrPH. Since then, interested friends, colleagues, and alumni have started making contributions toward the scholarship fund to provide substantial and meaningful support for PhD and MPH students in epidemiology and public health. The endowed scholarship honors the impact and legacy of Dr. Masho’s outstanding contributions to public health through her many years of dedicated teaching, mentoring, and research at Virginia Commonwealth University. Click to make a gift.
On the donation page, click on the drop-down menu (that reads “School of Medicine”) and select “Search for other funds.” Then enter "Masho" in the “Search for a fund” box that appears, in order to identify the Saba Masho, M.D., M.P.H., Dr. P.H. Endowed Scholarship in Epidemiology and proceed to make your donation.
