Adopt-a-PA-Student Program

What is it?

Based on the success of the Adopt-a-Med-Student Program, the School launched a similar Adopt-a-PA-Student Program. Since 2011, generous donors to the UND School of Medicine & Health Sciences have provided engraved stethoscopes for first-year medical students. Now, donors to the Adopt-a-PA-Student Program can provide professional white coats for second-year physician assistant students who are about to begin their clinical experiences.

The white coats will be formally presented to students during a ceremony. Similar to the Adopt-a-Med-Student Program, we also encourage donors to write letters to the students to be included in their coat pockets. Our goal is to provide a lasting, supportive connection between students and donors.

How do I participate?

Gifts of $100 per student can be:

  1. Mailed to the UND Alumni Association & Foundation, 3501 University Ave., Stop 8157, Grand Forks, ND, 58202. Please include “PA White Coat” in the check’s memo line. Or
  2. Submitted through UNDalumni.org/smhs. Under Comments, please put “PA White Coat.”

Letters to students can be included in Option 1 above or emailed to kristen.peterson@UND.edu.
