What is the Maine Osteopathic Educational Foundation? (MOEF)
The Maine Osteopathic Educational Foundation (MOEF) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization whose primary goals are to:
- Educate Maine students in osteopathic medicine;
- Provide continuing education for existing physicians; and
- Improve the health of all Maine people through education and research.
This Giving Tuesday (December 2nd, 2025), we invite you to support a mission that strengthens healthcare across our state: advancing osteopathic medical education in Maine.
The Maine Osteopathic Educational Foundation (MOEF) is dedicated to ensuring that Maine has the osteopathic physicians it needs—now and in the future. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, MOEF provides critical support by:
- Educating and inspiring Maine students pursuing a career in osteopathic medicine
- Offering high-quality continuing medical education (CME) for current physicians
- Funding research and educational initiatives that improve the health of Maine people
When you give to MOEF, you are investing directly in the future of compassionate healthcare in Maine.
Your contribution helps reduce financial barriers for students, enhances lifelong learning for DOs, and supports programs that elevate the health and wellness of our communities.
This Giving Tuesday, we hope you’ll join us in growing the next generation of Maine’s physicians and strengthening the care we provide to the people of our state.
