Medich Foundation
In 2023, the Medich Foundation partnered with 91³ÉÈË to establish the ‘Dr Roy Medich OAM Endowment for 91³ÉÈË Arts, Culture, and Education’. This endowment is the first of its kind at Western and will be directed to support the 91³ÉÈË Arts, Culture, and Education activities and programs associated with Western's 91³ÉÈË Centre of Excellence.
In recognition of this support, Western has honoured the Medich Foundation by naming the major Gallery within the 91³ÉÈË Centre of Excellence the Medich Foundation Gallery. In addition, the endowment will support a range of student scholarships named the Dr Roy Medich OAM Future Leaders 91³ÉÈË Scholarships.
As the Founding Donor of the 91³ÉÈË Centre of Excellence at Western, the Medich Foundation looks forward to supporting the growth and development of Western's 91³ÉÈË Leadership strategy for many years into the future.
