Ernst Annual Education Grant, the American Osteopathic Foundation Resident of the Year Award, the annual AOCA Scientific Session Award winners, and to develop new programs, products, and services especially for medical students, residents, and fellows to promote the field of osteopathic anesthesiology.

Copper Kettle Society Fund

The Copper Kettle Society pays tribute to individuals and families who have supported over a century of excellence in the science of anesthesiology.

For those who wish to support AOCA’s mission but need to preserve their assets during their lifetime, estate giving offers a meaningful solution. A gift through your will, retirement plan, or life insurance policy ensures the continued advancement of resident training, educational programs, and the overall quality of AOCA initiatives—enhancing the organization beyond what dues alone can achieve. This flexible giving option allows you to leave a lasting impact while maintaining control of your assets, with the ability to adjust your plans as your circumstances change.
