Foundation Leadership

MAFP Foundation:  A robust agenda for family medicine. 

Your gift will help fund patient and professional activities, educational programs and research grants to Minnesota's next generation of family physicians. 
 

The Board of Directors is the policy-making body of the Minnesota Academy of Family Physicians Foundation.  The Board is responsible for approving and overseeing programs, procedures, budget, and for monitoring the fiscal stability of the Foundation.

There are fourteen Directors.  Nine of the Directors must be members of the Minnesota Academy of Family Physicians.  Five of the Directors are non-members of the Minnesota Academy of Family Physicians whose background and qualifications are deemed to add expertise to the Foundation. 

To learn how you can get involved, please contact Executive Director Lynn Balfour at 952.542.0130 or email foundation@mafp.org.
