Networking Events

Since 1994 the Alliance has applied its signature flair to social events at the AAOMS Annual Meetings, forging lasting memories and friendships in support of the OMS Foundation.

Our 2025 Luncheon and FUNraiser for GIVE provided an opportunity to reconnect with old friends, welcome new friends and enjoy Washington D.C.'s dynamic energy. As always, proceeds supported the Global Initiative for Volunteerism and Education (GIVE)
Our popular Health Walk is expanding! The three-day event will now feature three unique walking routes, each with unique daily sightseeing stops.
