You are invited!

Virtual Dash for Diversity 5K from September 25th to October 3rd 2021.

We invite you to celebrate diversity in our communities and to support the building of our pipeline programs. NSU MD will host its 2nd Virtual Dash for Diversity 5K from September 25th to October 3rd, 2021. We will come together virtually, across Florida and from coast-to-coast, to raise funds to support our pipeline programs with local middle and high schools. These enrichment programs engage middle and high school students who are socioeconomically disadvantaged and underrepresented in medicine through mentorship and various science, technology, engineering, and math related activities. Through these programs, we aim to encourage a diverse group of students to consider a career in medicine, as well as to give them the support that they need to make these dreams a reality. Funds raised from the 5K will go directly into these pipeline programs to help us to continue to grow our engagement with the community. Read about our pipeline programs here
