Dear Friends, Supporters, and Colleagues,

We're Moving Forward for Our Patients, They Demand Ferocity, Not Fear.

As we look ahead to an uncertain future, we remain ﬁercely committed to the future of health and sustainability. The movement for climate action, health equity, and sustainability has never been stronger, and medical students are at the forefront of this crucial work as patient and public health advocates. In recent years, we have witnessed extraordinary student-driven educational initiatives, research, and institutional advocacy with profound ripple eﬀects that have touched state, national, and international audiences. Medical students feel the visceral urgency of addressing climate change as a health emergency, and Medical Students for a Sustainable Future represents the largest coalition of medical students in the world speciﬁcally dedicated to combating the health consequences of climate change. As the future leaders of healthcare, we are committed to integrating climate action into our careers, and we understand that the time to act is now.

However, as our organization’s momentum builds, we also see climate change intensifying as an existential threat. Our continued dependence on fossil fuels, record-setting heat, increased wildﬁres, more frequent extreme weather events, and loss of biodiversity all signal we are approaching critical ecological tipping points.

Your ﬁnancial contribution ensures that our momentum doesn't falter: our events remain accessible to trainees energized for planetary health, our voices are boosted, and our local advocacy remains supported. This enables us to expand our reach, engage more rising leaders, and build a stronger, more resilient network of climate and health champions.

Thank you for your support. We're glad you have joined us in creating a more sustainable future for all.

Sincerely,

Natalie Baker
