Do you have a GHHS chapter initiative that could use some funding to get off the ground? Or are you a resident/fellow and GHHS member launching a humanism in medicine initiative?
The Gold Humanism Honor Society accepts proposals for a GHHS Chapter Activity Grant on a rolling basis. The grant period will be based on the project’s needs.
Chapter projects must be connected to a GHHS chapter and involve current GHHS chapter members. Starting in 2023, funding is also available to support initiatives led by medical residents or fellows who are GHHS members. For resident/fellow-led projects, preference is given to projects that involve participation of local GHHS chapter members, however this is not a requirement.
Chapters or GHHS residents/fellows may request up to $1500 to support humanism-centered initiatives. We are particularly interested in:
- Legacy projects that are handed over from one class of chapter members to the next.
- Outreach projects that involve direct partnership with community organizations.
- Initiatives that involve collaborations across GHHS chapters, nationally or internationally.
- Research projects that address humanism in medical learning environments and/or wellness for trainees and clinicians.
Please note that GHHS does not provide support for honoraria, speaker’s fees, or monetary donations to charities.
