Three Funds to Direct Your Support
We can't predict who will need help next, so please consider donating today to one of three charitable funds set up to help Texas physicians.
The Physicians Benevolent Fund
PBF provides financial assistance to Texas physicians and their families who have fallen on hard times and cannot meet their day-to-day needs. Through the years, the fund has helped physicians who are elderly and no longer practicing medicine, have become disabled or ill, and are widowed and raising families.
Your gift provides monthly, life-saving support when physicians face adversity beyond their control. In times of personal crisis, this fund provides relief from mounting bills: for health care, basic utilities, living expenses, and other necessities.
PBF Wellness Fund
PBF Wellness Fund provides financial assistance to licensed Texas physicians who cannot afford short-term treatment for wellness issues potentially affecting their ability to practice medicine safely. Funds also may cover the family's household expenses while the physician is receiving treatment.
Your gift can help physicians rebuild their career during a difficult time.
PBF Disaster Relief Fund
When natural disaster strikes, TMA’s PBF Disaster Relief Fund provides financial support to help Texas physicians recover and rebuild their practices. The fund activates upon Federal disaster declarations, such as Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Rita.
Your donations allow TMA to respond quickly to aid physicians after Mother Nature delivers a blow.
