Mission & Focus Areas
The foundation says it supports clinicians committed to the health of under-resourced communities. Its stated charitable activity is to provide microgrants for health care projects that benefit underserved communities and medicine more broadly, including projects such as free health clinics and mission trips.
The foundation’s website lists funded trips with a range of project aims, including cleft training, emergency medicine, clinical education, and kidney care. These are the missions of the grantee projects, not stated as the foundation’s own direct work.
Grantmaking
The foundation’s website describes grants for domestic and international global health trip airfare, with a current stated maximum of $3,000. It says proposals are reviewed twice a month and recommends submitting 2–4 months before departure. Eligible applicants must be verified Doximity physicians or advanced practice providers (NP, CRNA, or PA). Approved applicants book through the foundation’s travel portal; flights already purchased are not reimbursed. Recipients are asked to share photos and a short trip recap after returning.
For filing year 2024, the foundation reported 220 grants totaling $381,335. Grants ranged from $8 to $6,335, with a median of $1,776. The largest listed awards went to individual recipients for doctor travel grants; the largest was $6,335, followed by awards of $5,116 and $4,175. The 2024 filing states that its travel support was limited to economy airfare on regularly scheduled flights, up to $2,400 per mission, and that grants were one-time and nonrenewable. The filing also lists selection criteria including the quality of the medical mission, the number of people potentially served, prior success with a similar mission, and application clarity and transparency.
The filing states that the foundation makes contributions only to preselected charitable organizations and does not accept unsolicited requests. Its website, however, invites eligible Doximity members to propose a trip.
