In March, the Checkered Flag and Doctors' Day Challenges generated 484 gifts totaling $125,750, making the initiatives the most successful challenges to date.

For the fifth year in a row, Checkered Flag matched all gifts made to the EVMS Fund throughout the month of March, up to $25,000. And this year, an anonymous donor matched support on Tuesday, March 30, up to $7,500, in honor of Doctors' Day.

These generous gifts will help increase funding support for student scholarships, faculty recruitment, curriculum enhancement, research and community outreach.
