WELCOME Since its inception in 1943 as a social group for wives of physicians serving at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine and the North Carolina Baptist Hospital, the Medical Center Guild has evolved into an organization of spouses of faculty, house staff, and administration of the Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. The Guild’s mission is to provide opportunities for leadership, growth, friendship, service, and self enrichment to its talented and diverse membership through a variety of activities, as well as to provide funding for otherwise unmet need of benevolence at the Medical Center. In 2000, the Guild pledged $25,000.00 to establish an endowed Medical Center Guild Medical Student Scholarship Fund. Our pledge has been met and in 2004, the scholarship was awarded to its first recipient. The Guild continues to fund raise and contribute to the endowment each year. Click on the link titled Scholarship for more info about events this year. UPCOMING EVENTS Save the date! On Wednesday April 22, the Guild will hold the Spring meeting and Installation of 09-10 Officers from 10:00am to noon at the home of Linda DuBose. Dr. Medge Owen from WFU Baptist Medical Center will speak about her mission work specifically for women. It will be interesting to hear how different health care is in other countries for childbirth. Invitations will be mailed soon. Updates: Thanks to everyone who baked for the annual Valentine Bake Sale and to Shannon Chang who chaired the event. There were many beautiful cakes, muffins,brownies, cookies, and goodies of all kinds that were scarfed up quickly! A donation will be made to our Medical School Scholarship fund with the proceeds. Our joint meeting with the Alliance was February 10 at Forsyth Country Club. Mayor Joines and Terri LaGrande spoke on "Going Green". We had a great attendance (over 100) at the welcome potluck dinner at Sandy Poehling's for the McConnell's in January. It was so good to see old faces and meet new ones. |
