The World Is WaitingHMS launches transformative $750 million fundraising campaignHarvard Medical School has been innovating
for more than 230 years, from developing the
smallpox vaccine and paving the way for the polio
vaccine to transforming the ability to treat cancers
and revolutionizing the understanding of how the
brain develops. Like their acclaimed predecessors,
today’s HMS researchers, trainees, alumni, and
students are tackling the greatest health care
challenges of our time.
HMS is the epicenter of the largest biomedical research
community in the world. Together with our 16 renowned
affiliated hospitals and research institutions, we are
making breakthroughs that have a tangible impact on
how the world understands and treats disease.
“This is the world’s greatest medical school, in the
world’s greatest University, deeply embedded with
many of the greatest hospitals and biomedical research
institutes,” says Jeffrey S. Flier, MD, dean of HMS and
the Caroline Shields Walker Professor of Medicine.
“Even at Harvard, this pulsing ecosystem of energized
people able to educate, innovate, and discover, we
cannot fund everything we should—and must.”
On Nov. 13, HMS officially launched The World Is
Waiting: The Campaign for Harvard Medicine, a
transformative $750 million fundraising initiative
that is empowering its mission to alleviate human
suffering caused by disease.
"This Campaign is about helping people live
longer, healthier lives,” says Flier. “We are
using our most effective tools—education,
discovery, service, and leadership—to attack
disease and address the biggest health care
challenges of our time. Both the needs and
the opportunities are great. Our success
is critical to the health of our children,
grandchildren, and indeed the whole human
family around the globe.”
Changing Lives
Harvard University President Drew Gilpin Faust
says it is a privilege to glimpse the vast dimensions
of medicine at Harvard: some 20,000 faculty and
students and nearly 10,000 alumni whose new
ideas stretch minds and change lives across the
world every day, from labs and teaching hospitals in
Boston to rural clinics in Liberia.
“Together we can stretch our minds with new ideas,
fill the world with new hope, alleviate suffering,
and improve human lives,” says Faust, the Lincoln
Professor of History.
HMS has raised $396 million toward the Campaign
goal as of Dec. 31, 2014, representing gifts and
pledges from more than 5,000 alumni, faculty, staff,
board members, volunteers, and friends.
“Only bold institutions—willing to do things
differently, willing to build on strengths and willing
to take risks and create new paths—will meet
expectations deserving of even more support,” says
Joshua Boger, AM ’75, PhD ’79, campaign chair,
member of the HMS Board of Fellows, and founder
and former CEO of Vertex Pharmaceuticals.
“Today, in every building, down every hallway, in
every lab, I see young medical and research
students dreaming what I dreamed,” says Flier,
recalling his days as a young researcher at the
National Institutes of Health. “In many cases, all
they need is one person with the resources to help.
You can be that person.”
