End the year with a tax-deductible contribution to the WSU School of Medicine's Mazurek Medical Ed u cation Commons.

The Kresge Foundation recently awarded the Wayne State University School of Medicine $3 million to support construction of the Richard J. Mazurek, M.D., Medical Education Commons. But it comes with a cha l lenge: The school must raise the balance of the project by July 1, 2007.

To date, $13 million has been raised toward the t o tal project goal of $30 million as the university gears up for the second phase of its "Wayne First" capital fundraising campaign. Many generous d o nors have already dedicated their support; to help make a difference in this important effort, please contact Patty Paquin at ppaquin@med.wayne.edu.
