@Heidi_Stephany is the best. @UCI_Urology residents will be able to travel internationally to provide surgical care, cost-free, thanks to a generous endowment created by Dr. Stephany and her family. I’m proud to make my gift on #UCIGivingDay to this special program.

Today is #UCIGivingDay! Please consider donating to the @UCI_Urology Margaret Eskola Endowed Resident International Travel Fund to support our residents' and department's philanthropic efforts. Every gift counts! givingday.uci.edu/giving-day/712…
