Donations needed for ICMDA Travelling Bursary Fund

Please give generously to enable students, doctors and dentists from poorer countries to attend the congress. Such donations are tax deductible.

Our own Aussie students and recent grads will also find it very expesnive to go to South America. Not withstanding that, the experience is such a blessing and such a stimulation, that it becomes an investment in the future of our fellowship, to help them to go. Donating for Australian participants is NOt tax deductible. Please go to the donations page...

Hope Zimbabwe

Medical student members of CMDFA established Hope Zimbabwe as a project of HSA. It began in response to the desperate situation due to cholera in 2009, and has gone on to support a wider range of needs including camps for AIDS orphans and assistance for medical students in Zimbabwe. Funds are being channelled with help of Daryl Hackland of ICMDA.:
