The NY-based Vellore CMC Foundation, during its Annual Meeting held on May 24^th, 2023, recognized IM/ ABFMS (and six organizations) for their faithful and generous support of CMC Vellore, India for more than the past 50 years. The Foundation also recognized ten individual donors, each of whom has similarly provided their unwavering support for 50 years. It is reassuring to see there are now many professional and business people, mostly of India origin, who have become generous supporters. Thanks to the able leadership of the Foundation’s president, John A. Riehl and his team, CMC Vellore has been awarded four consecutive ASHA grants from the USAID.
