Dear MIM Family,
As 2020 comes to a close, let’s reflect on our accomplishments in the midst of adversity and the powerful lessons learned. Mentoring in Medicine, Inc. has continued to provide innovative programs to inspire, educate and empower our youth to pursue health and science careers. So much work is being done behind the scenes to create meaningful experiences for students from middle school through career!
This summer, Mentoring in Medicine hosted a Virtual Biomedical Internship in which over 750 students from middle school through graduate school formed virtual learning labs and performed COVID impact studies! Take a look at their work: https://vimeo.com/mentoringinmedicine/review/449712387/45840ae328
Currently, Mentoring in Medicine hosts Motivational Mondays each week from 7 pm-8 pm EST. Different health and science professionals share wisdom gained during their journey, provide inspiration and answer your questions. Join us each Monday!
We Need Your Help
Tuesday, December 2 is Giving Tuesday! We are asking for you to donate to the mission of Mentoring in Medicine as we continue to expose and encourage our students to pursue biomedical careers. Since 2017, MIM has helped just over 1,000 students become physicians, nurses, PAs and more-most of them were discouraged from pursuing their dream! We need your help to continue our work. You can donate by visiting http://medicalmentor.org/donate/
