Wound Healing Society Foundation
Improving the quality of wound care worldwide through the funding of research and education in support of the mission of the Wound Healing Society
An important element of our mission is to advance the quality of wound care worldwide through the funding of research and education. Through support from individual and corporate partners, we have been able to award over $50,000 to outstanding individuals and to support the update of wound healing clinical practice guidelines.
These awards are made possible by contributions from individuals and corporate sponsors. In order to show our appreciation, we have established levels of endowed and annual giving recognize the generosity of our supporters. Generous contributions not only help students and researchers around the world, but also the wound healing community in general, bringing better care to individuals with acute and chronic wounds.
