Women in Medicine EmpowerHer Med Gala

Honoring people shaping the future of healthcare.

Friday, september 25, 2026 | 7:00 pm

Join us on Friday, September 25 for the EmpowerHer Med Gala, an evening dedicated to celebrating women who are transforming healthcare and the allies who stand beside them.

The EmpowerHer Med Gala honors our #IStandWithHer Award Winners and supports the Women in Medicine® mission to advance women physicians and healthcare professionals from every stage of their career — from medical student to senior leader — through leadership development and strategic community building.

Our signature event brings together physicians, healthcare professionals, researchers, trainees, industry partners, and advocates for a night of connection, storytelling, and purpose.

Guests enjoy a seated dinner, an inspiring program, and meaningful opportunities to invest in the future of women in medicine.

Give to the EmpowerHer Med Gala and:

  • Accelerate physician leadership — funding programs that sharpen the skills, visibility, and networks women physicians and healthcare leaders need to lead at every level, from department chair to C-suite.

  • Build the pipeline from training to the top — supporting WIM's continuum of programs that develop women at every career stage and connect them to the sponsorship, platforms, and national networks that drive advancement.

  • Drive evidence-based change — helping the VERITAS Research Lab produce the science that makes the case for equity, informs policy, and gives physician voices the data they need to lead with authority.

  • Strengthen the ecosystem — because when women in medicine are developed, positioned, and elevated, patients, institutions, and the entire healthcare system benefit.

Whether you're a longtime champion of WIM or joining us for the first time, the EmpowerHer Med Gala is a powerful way to deepen your engagement, celebrate progress, and fuel the programs building a new generation of women physician leaders.

All proceeds from the EmpowerHer Med Gala support Women in Medicine® and directly advance our mission to educate, elevate, and advance women in healthcare. Contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
