You Can Help Make a Difference

With the support of more than 10,000 gifts, the Charles Woodson Clinical Research Fund provides Michigan Medicine pediatric researchers with the freedom to advance their crucial work, train the next generation of clinical scientists, and access the lab space and tools they need. 

To date, the Woodson Fund has provided: 

  • $2.9 M Research project seed funding
  • $1.9 M Recruitment and retention for top researchers
  • $1.5 M Woodson Lab infrastructure

Your support at Event on Main and Golf on Main can have a life-saving impact. Proceeds from both events benefit the Woodson Fund, which addresses early-life diseases and adverse childhood experiences, ensuring lifelong benefits for individuals, families, and communities.
