Friends, colleagues, and countrymen and women who believe in the power of physicians to change the face of medicine, please consider donating to the National Physicians Alliance -- you can donate as a lumpsum or in monthly recurring donations -- whatever works best for you!

Wondering what this organization has done so far? Please check out what we've been working on:

Does it jive with your energy, your core beliefs, your passions? Then please join as a member AND donate extra too!

After that, let's get our hands dirty -- browse the website, talk to me about meeting other NPA members in your area, and join us at the 3rd annual national conference of the NPA in Houston in March 2008

Please feel free to ask me ANY questions you may have about the organization -- I'm currently on the Board of Directors of the organization and have been heavily involved in the Health Disparities Task Force and the Communications/Web committee.

I wouldn't just ask friends and colleagues for money for just ANYTHING. I believe in this organization and I strongly believe that you will too. Let's move the NPA forward together!

Sincerely,

Anjali Taneja, MD, MPH
