Financial challenges can create significant barriers for students pursuing careers in physical and occupational therapy. The Gary Bartoo Student Relief Fund provides crucial support to students facing unexpected hardships, helping them stay on track toward graduation and their professional goals. Many students experience financial strain due to the demands of full-time coursework and clinical rotations, leaving little room to manage emergencies such as medical bills, housing insecurities, or transportation issues.
Your donations will directly impact students by alleviating these financial burdens and enabling them to focus on their education and clinical training. By supporting this fund, you are investing in the success of future healthcare professionals who will go on to serve their communities with compassion and excellence. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference in ensuring that students have the support they need to achieve their dreams.
