AOF/AAOA Holiday Hug Grant Application
The Advocates for the AOA (AAOA), in partnership with the American Osteopathic Foundation (AOF), created the Holiday Hug Grants in 2020 to help medical students or residents with year-end expenses. Expenses relating to residency programs and/or medical school can be particularly challenging around year-end holidays for those who have children/families to support. Recognizing this, the AAOA have created a fund, managed by the AOF, to aid those truly in need. With the mission of supporting Osteopathic medicine, the AAOA hopes this grant can be of support to you and your family.
Up to three (3) grants of $500 each will be given annually to help defray year-end and/or personal expenses.
Eligibility
- Applicants must be one of the following, with a current AAOA membership in good standing:
- Osteopathic medical student or resident
- Spouse of a medical school student or resident
Application Requirements

- Please provide a brief intro about you and your family.
