Johns Hopkins Medicine has built a reputation for excellence unsurpassed by any health care institution in the world. Pioneers in their fields, Johns Hopkins clinicians and scientists have been responsible for many of the last century’s major discoveries and innovations in patient care and research. Because of our global reach, people from around the world come to Johns Hopkins, confident they will receive the most comprehensive medical care available anywhere.
The story of Johns Hopkins is—at its heart—a story of philanthropy. Johns Hopkins Medicine owes its existence, and its continuing excellence, to the generosity of private individuals. Philanthropy allows Johns Hopkins Medicine to continue its ongoing efforts as a leader in innovative and compassionate treatment, groundbreaking research, and cutting-edge education.

Most of our major research initiatives are supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). We also have support from pharmaceutical and device companies and private foundations. However, for our faculty to pursuing innovative “out of the box” research, we need seed grants to support development of preliminary data demonstrating that our newest ideas are worthy of major research investment.
We rely on the generosity of private philanthropists like you to support our cutting edge endocrine research. Your contribution could be a significant difference to those afflicted with these common diseases.
Thank you for your investment in the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism.

There are four ways to support the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism through charitable giving: cash gifts, matching gifts, tribute giving or gift planning.
Cash gifts
Gifts of all sizes help the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism continue our ongoing efforts as a leader in innovative and compassionate treatment, groundbreaking research, and excellent surgical medical education. Gifts made with a check or credit card provide immediate support to the Division.
Contributions to the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism can be unrestricted and used where the need is greatest. Gifts can also be designated to support a specific doctor. Gifts can also be made in memory of a loved one or to honor someone special in your life.
Gifts can be made outright or pledged over a period of up to five years.
Matching gifts
Many employers offer a matching gift program to their employees. For every dollar you donate to the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism, your employer will match it either dollar for dollar, two dollars to one dollar, or, in more generous cases, three dollars to one dollar. All you need is a matching gift form from your employer’s public affairs department. Complete the section designated for employees and mail the form to us. We will take care of all the other details and paperwork.
Tribute giving
There are many opportunities to commemorate family members, friends, or colleagues on a birthday, anniversary, or another special occasion. Gifts can be made to the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism in honor of a special physician, for example, who has played a significant role in your health. These gifts are greatly appreciated by the people being honored and their families.
A gift made to the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism in memory of a person who has passed away is a special way to honor a beloved friend or family member. Such a gift creates a legacy and memorializes the person by providing direct support to the Division.
Gift planning
Gift planning allows our donors to thoughtfully choose ways of giving that meet their needs—and the needs of the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism. A development director from the Division and the Johns Hopkins Institutions, Office of Gift Planning can provide you with information on effective charitable planning options so that you can achieve optimum tax, financial, and philanthropic results.
