TODAY is #GivingTuesday! Let’s Support Research. Empower Practice. Improve Lives.

This Giving Tuesday, the American Occupational Therapy Foundation (AOTF) invites you to join us in shaping the future of occupational therapy. For nearly 60 years, AOTF has championed the profession by providing scholarships, fellowships, and research grants that empower OT students, researchers, and practitioners to transform lives and communities.

Why Your Support Matters

Your generosity fuels programs that:

• Award Research Grants: From intervention studies to implementation science, our grants are building new evidence in demand and advancing evidence-based practices that improve care and outcomes.
• Fund Fellowships: Postdoctoral researchers and doctoral students are the future thought leaders OT needs. Through AOTF, these emerging scientists receive vital funding to explore innovative ideas and push the boundaries of occupational therapy.
• Provide Scholarships: Invest in the next class of OTPs by providing financial aid to dozens of students with scholarships that make their dreams of helping others a reality.

These programs are unique to AOTF and ensure that occupational therapy continues to evolve, addressing pressing healthcare challenges and improving the lives of individuals across the lifespan.
