By supporting REAP, you have the opportunity to be a part of continuing and growing the innovation that keeps our specialty at the forefront, where we should be and must be.

What is the difference between an OMSF Annual Membership Gift (AMG)and a gift to REAP?

Your $165 AMG is a contribution to the core support of OMSF, for operational and programmatic needs: the working capital that OMSF needs to carry out its strategic mission. Your gift to REAP supports research and education in the specialty. AMGs and REAP gifts are vital for OMSF to continue to be able to serve the specialty.
