About The Foundation

History

In May 2000, the Massachusetts Medical Society (MMS) House of Delegates established the MMS and Alliance Charitable Foundation as a supporting organization of the MMS. The Foundation, a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization, is a mechanism for consolidating the MMS's charitable giving to the community into one entity, building on the activities of the former MMS Committee on Community Action and the MMS Alliance Charitable and Educational Fund.


Mission

The mission of the Foundation is to support the charitable and educational activities of the MMS and the MMS Alliance; including but not limited to developing and nurturing cooperation between individuals, the professions, institutions, and the community to creatively address issues that affect the health, benefit, and welfare of the community.

2025-2026 Grants

In FY 2026, the Foundation awarded grants totaling $76,500 to support four free health care programs and one initiative engaging medical students in community-based care. Collectively, these programs provide a range of primary and preventive services, including routine and urgent care, health screenings, vaccinations, mental health support, and care navigation. Services are delivered through volunteer-driven models and are designed to expand access for uninsured and underserved populations facing financial, cultural, and systemic barriers.
