SMADIE 's Day of Giving Donation Drive

Giving Tuesday is a global movement that celebrates generosity, community, and shared responsibility. It began as one day, but today, it represents something bigger:

A reminder that giving isn't just about money.
And it isn't just about one day.

It’s about choosing to support change every day, in many ways.

SMADIE works to make healthcare accessible, inclusive, and equitable for people with disabilities, not just in policy, but in training, design, and everyday care.

Your support helps us:
~ Offer a yearly CME Eligible Disability in Healthcare Conference
~ Celebrate October, National Disability Employement Awareness Month
~ Build a Stanford Disability Champions Program
~ Build awareness of Disability in Healthcare and Medicine

Giving Tuesday helps us fuel this work, not just for one day, but all year long.
