Our Impact
Flexible resources from the Brigham Fund help us to address the areas of greatest need within our hospital while exploring new initiatives that will raise the bar for healthcare. Below are just three examples of how your generous support impacts the many lives we touch.
Raising Standards for Patient Care: COVID Recovery Center

The Brigham’s new COVID Recovery Center aims to help the 20 percent of patients who suffer from pulmonary, inflammatory, and other lingering symptoms after surviving COVID-19. Through a multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach, the center supports targeted care for patients and represents an important avenue for advancing research on the long-term physical and psychological impacts of the disease.
Pioneering Innovative Research

Your generosity also helps support the President’s Scholar awards, which provide funding to exceptional early-career investigators at the Brigham. Awardee Sandro Santagata, MD, PhD, practices neuropathology with a focus on diagnosing and characterizing brain tumors. His research aims to develop methodologies to image tissues taken from cancer patients, extracting molecular information that sheds light on how cancers form and then grow their most aggressive features.
Training the Caregivers of Tomorrow

The Student Success Jobs Program is a year-round internship program at the Brigham that creates educational, employment, and mentoring opportunities for Boston high school students. During the program’s 20-year history, more than 700 students have been introduced to medical, health, and science professions. Of the alumni from 2012–2020, 46 percent are currently working in healthcare.
