Big Give is over, but you can still support your favorite programs.

Marvin R. Poston Opportunity Fund

Support recruitment and outreach efforts to ensure diversity in the field of optometry.

Your gift to the Marvin R. Poston Opportunity Fund supports recruitment and outreach efforts to attract the best students and to advance an inclusive graduate community. Named after the first African American to graduate from the School of Optometry who went on to nationally recognition and respect as an optometrist, community leader, role model, and statesman. His life is a reflection of hard work, determination, and accomplishment.

We hope you will join us in honoring Dr. Poston's legacy by making a gift to this important fund today. Together, we can ensure diversity in the field of optometry.
