The Medical School Early Outreach Grant Program (MSEOG) at the NAPCA Foundation offer grants to tax-exempt public charities described under Section 501(c)(3)  of the Internal Revenue Service Code. The Foundation does not accept applications from individuals, private foundations, fiscal agents, or government units such as fire districts, municipalities, or rotary clubs (whether or not they are 501(c)(3) organizations and similar service clubs. 

Grant funding will support medical school pipeline programs across the nation that are designed to support projects that expand access to medical school education for a diverse group of talented youths, as early as the 4th grade, including students traditionally underrepresented in medicine, and those that come from families with limited financial resources. We are interested in supporting non-profit 501c3 organizations that are committed to increasing the diversity of the physician workforce.
