Physician-led philanthropy is driving meaningful, measurable change in our community. The CMA Foundation focuses on the following priorities that improve the lives of patients, physicians, and families across central Ohio.

Supporting Physician Health & Well-Being

We offset the cost of the Physician Leadership Academy and have helped 216 physicians advance their leadership and well-being since the transformational program began in 2012.

We support connection, renewal, and career satisfaction by funding regular gatherings for our Women in Medicine community.

We fund free access to a network of physician peers trained to support their colleagues in need through our Doc to Doc program.

Our funding has supported 165 students to explore medical careers through Made for Medicine.

Nurturing Our Future Leaders

Our Youth Council has awarded $368,000 in grants to local non-profits to help vulnerable youth in our community since 2001.

Caring for Our Community

We supported the training of more than 2,900 healthcare providers, first responders, and public health professionals through COTS in 2025.



2,652 vulnerable adults received medical, dental, mental health, and pregnancy services in 2025 thanks to our support of the PCC Center for Optimal Health.

We enabled expanded mental health services by providing a $500,000 grant to the ADAMH Franklin County Crisis Center.
