Medicine Ball 2025



In Tarrant County, many of our neighbors cannot afford or don’t know how to get the care they need. For more than 100 years, the medical families of the Tarrant County Medical Society Alliance Foundation have funded crucial community health programs in Tarrant County providing education and healthcare to those in need in our own community. With our sponsors’ support, we are able to improve the health and wellness of children and families through local community health programs, including:


• Vaccines Defend What Matters

• Allied Health Scholarships

• Project Access Tarrant County

• Hard Hats for Little Heads

• Texas BookShare



Information on each of these vital projects can be found on our Community Health Project Options Sponsorship form and all of our Community Health Projects on the Serve Together page.

Sponsor medical students, residents and spouses to attend



We can’t say THANK YOU enough to these fine physicians in training from UNT HSC College of Medicine and now TCU's Burnett School of Medicine and their dates for being the best Volunteer staff for our Medicine Ball. We could not host Medicine Ball without them each year. We look forward to the day they are back with us as members of the TCMS and the Alliance. To underwrite a Medical Student Volunteer, contact Kelly Parsley kelly@theparsleys.net.

We have also invited Residents and their spouses/partners from our area Residency programs to join us as our guests to enjoy a night of fun and see what it means to be part of the Family of Medicine when you join the Alliance.

Help us to include as many of these Physicians in Training as possible by donating their ticket. To sponsor a Resident or Fellow and their spouse/partner, $300 per person. Contact Kelly Parsley kelly@theparsleys.net for reservations.
