Dear Friends: I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving and that you also had an opportunity to review our recent message about making a year-end contribution to the SVS Foundation.
If you haven’t already donated, #GivingTuesday would be the ideal time to do so.
The SVS Foundation expands its mission and delineates its vision to support new programs and goals.
The clock is ticking to apply for a new SVS Foundation grant program aimed squarely at improving patient health by way of our community practice members.
After the turkey, after the frenzy of post-holiday shopping, do something for others by donating to the SVS Foundation on #Giving Tuesday.
The Foundation has had a consequential year, with another beckoning, as the Foundation Board of Directors expanded the mission to add an emphasis on disease prevention and patient education.
At the 2017 Vascular Annual Meeting (May 31-June 3), the SVS Foundation awarded a number of basic and clinical research grants.

The holiday season – the season of caring and goodwill, for giving -- is upon us. It’s the season where people reach out to help people in need, to help make the world a better place, to impact the future through donations of time, effort and money.
Dr. Iraklis Pipinos has studied peripheral arterial disease for much of his career. His research, he said, got a tremendous boost from being awarded a K08 grant, the Mentored Clinical Scientist Research Career Development Award, from the SVS Foundation, in 2005 to study the myopathy of PAD.
The holidays are upon us. This year you can do your shopping and do a good deed for the Society for Vascular Surgery at the same time.
