About the Scholarship

EVMS 1999 commencement
ceremonies.
The Captain David Brown Aerospace and Medical Research Endowment is established for the Eastern Virginia Medical School by the family of David Brown, M.D.; Dorothy R. Brown, Paul D. Brown and Douglas R. Brown in the year 2008 at the request of his EVMS classmates, this 26th year of his graduation from Eastern Medical School. The Class of 1982 classmates, colleagues and devoted friends are committed to support this endowment to perpetuity.
Dave possessed the characteristics of energy, enthusiasm, honesty combined with a spirit of adventure and exploration that served as the inspiration for all of EVMS alumni. Selfless pursuit of self improvement combined with help of his fellow man serve as the example all physicians should wish to emulate.
The David Brown Endowment is established to provide financial assistance to medical students at Eastern Virginia Medical School who demonstrates academic excellence and a spirit of exploration and service through the establishment of a permanent endowment. The goal is twofold: 1) to assist EVMS students in the pursuit of their career in aerospace medicine and/or explorative medical research and 2) to have David Brown’s life and achievements be an inspiration to all future EVMS students. The intention is to begin by awarding a $1,000 scholarship annually until such time the endowment can grow to a self-sustaining amount.
The Captain David Brown Aerospace and Medical Research Endowment is intended to identify dedicated individuals who possess an interest in aviation and/or basic medical research so that Dave’s legacy may live on and continue to inspire students in the future.
