History
Incorporated in 1985 as a 501(c)(3) entity, The Osman Foundation is registered and operates in the States of Florida and North Carolina.
For nearly 30 years, The Osman Foundation’s founder, Daniel A. Osman, MD, has committed to advancing the field of medical education and research by bringing top researchers, oncologists and surgeons together annually for the Miami Breast Cancer Conference (MBCC). This gathering is now the second largest of its kind, serving over 1,000 physicians annually.
In 2006, the MBCC was sold and the proceeds were used to endow The Osman Foundation’s efforts to help children reach their full potential and to become global citizens who make positive contributions to society.
This opportunity allowed The Osman Foundation to expand its work to North Carolina, which resulted in the foundation’s Program Director, Donna DeLano, relocating to Chatham County.
The Osman Foundation has also led staff development and capacity building workshops for teachers and administrators at all schools in Chatham County, and acts as an advisory member on various educational task forces in Chatham County Schools.
