Supporting the Duke Ocular Innovation Hub

The Duke Ocular Innovation Hub was established by generous alumnus John Karickhoff, MD, to strengthen Duke Ophthalmology as an engine of ocular innovation. We invite individuals, foundations, and corporations to support innovation and join us in curing blindness worldwide.

Your gift to the Hub can support its overall mission or any of its focus areas: resident research, faculty research, teaching innovation, rewarding innovation, or hosting visiting lecturers. 

Contribute to the Duke Ocular Innovation Hub online

If you do not feel comfortable making a gift online or would like to give in other ways, please contact Ari Gauss, Senior Director of Development, by calling 919.385.3128 or emailing ari.gauss@duke.edu.

Interested in making a tax-wise gift from your individual retirement account (IRA)? IRA rollover gifts — often referred to as “qualified charitable distributions” or “QCDs” — can be an easy and effective way to make a gift to Duke Eye Center. IRA owners age 70 ½ or older can make a direct, tax-free transfer of up to $105,000 a year from their individual retirement account to a public charity like Duke University.
