The Lughati Foundation was founded by Drs. Gail and David Brunsman after they witnessed firsthand the challenges facing low-income patients with diabetes while practicing medicine at hospitals in Baltimore and Los Angeles. The foundation is dedicated to improving patient care by inspiring health professionals from diverse backgrounds who are committed to improving access and outcomes for disadvantaged populations as well as underserved communities nationwide.
The Lughati Foundation seeks students with an interest in primary care fields or patient advocacy/patient engagement programs such as but not limited to: family medicine, geriatrics, neurology (particularly dementia), psychiatry or emergency medicine; mental health; women’s health or public health nursing; neonatal intensive care nursing; hospice/palliative care nursing; community development work including home visiting programs; social work services that focus on populations with chronic illnesses such as diabetes mellitus (DM). Applicants must demonstrate financial need via FAFSA verification process as well as demonstrated leadership potential through involvement within their respective university network such as student government organizations or other extracurricular activities involving community service
Award Amount
The scholarship award is $3,000.00
A student may be eligible to receive this scholarship if they meet the following requirements:
Be a current medical student at an accredited post-secondary institution of higher education in the United States.
Have a GPA of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale (or equivalent).
Applicants must submit an essay on their career goals as it relates to medicine and healthcare policy in the U.S., specifically addressing how they hope their career will impact access to health care for low-income families and individuals.
$3,000.00
The $3,000 scholarship is given to students who are accepted into medical school and who have a GPA of 3.5 or higher. This is not as much money as some other scholarships because it does not cover the entire cost of attending medical school, but it can still be helpful for many students. If a student's parents cannot afford to pay any part of the tuition fees then this amount will help them get through their first year at least without having to take out loans or work part-time jobs outside class hours in order to make ends meet.
