	October 13, 2020 at 2:06 PM	Approved	Northface Fundraiser	AMMSA	10/13/2020	11/10/2020	Traditionally, MMSA conducted a yearly Baklava sale to raise funds for the club. However due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are unable to sell food like this again. Therefore, we are hoping to sell premium winter jackets embroidered with the LECOM logo.

Selling the "LECOM Northface Jacket" will provide students with an opportunity to wear high quality clothing that they can take pride in because it represents their school. We plan to sell the jackets at a low profit to keep them affordable for all students, and we plan to sell to all years and colleges at LECOM. We plan on using the official LECOM logo as provided in the portal on the jacket, embroidered in all white.

	October 27, 2025 at 12:26 PM	Approved	Class of 2028 Thanksgiving Lunch	Class of 2028	10/27/2025	11/20/2025	To bring students together in a spirit of gratitude and community before the Thanksgiving holiday, we would like to request approval to host a Class of 2028 Thanksgiving Lunch on Thursday, November 20th, 2025, during the M2 lunch hour (11:30 AM – 12:20 PM) at the LECOM cafeteria and Vora lounge. We plan to cater Chipotle trays featuring a “Build Your Own” setup to keep the meal customizable and enjoyable for everyone.

We will order enough food for approximately 150 people, totaling $1,590, covered by Class Board funds. Each tray set (“The Single”) includes one protein, two bases, two toppings, two salsas, and one type of tortilla. Setup & Distribution: Food will be served by Class Board members wearing gloves and following hygiene protocols. Distribution will take place at two locations: by the tables near the lunch checkout area in the cafeteria and in the Vora Lounge. Each site will have one line entering and one line exiting to ensure smooth flow and minimize congestion. Dr. Falk will be in attendance instead of Dr. Thielman.

	February 11, 2023 at 9:25 PM	Approved	Tyler Dobratz	LECOM Med Erie - SGA	02/11/2023	04/01/2023	Time & Date: 10:30pm -3:30pm (30 min set up, two 2 hour volunteer shifts, 30 min clean up) – per adjustments with Dr. Shabloski set up and clean up times have been cut in half April 1, 2023 Location: LECOM West Garage/Loading Bay (same as last year) Description: We are excited to organize an event with Food for Kidz who we worked with last year! Food for Kidz is an awesome organization that helps groups of all sizes set up mobile food packing events to help address and fight hunger around the world. On their website, they have a detailed packet of all instructions and recommendations to set up an event and this packet is attached with this description. In summary, Food for Kidz will deliver the dried food in bulk and all of the equipment needed to set up packing stations. SGA members will arrive when the truck arrives to start setting up and the first shift of volunteers will help set up anything else we need help with. Volunteers then work in teams to pack individual, sealed, fortified rice-soy protein meal packages. Each of these packages provides six servings. These packages are then packed into boxes (36 packages per box) which will then be sent to a child in need somewhere in the world (last year we were notified that our food was sent to Ukraine!). One box of food will feed a child for approximately 7 months. At the end of the packing session, volunteers will then help load the boxes of packed food and supplies onto the Food for Kidz truck, and the Food for Kidz organization will handle the rest of the distribution and delivery of the food to its destination. Purpose: To provide an opportunity for LECOM to help fight world hunger and volunteer our time to help those in need in our world, and to foster the caring and giving attitude embedded in LECOM’s mission and the foundations of osteopathic care. We hope to hold this event as a large volunteer opportunity open to all LECOM students, that encourages students from all disciplines, pathways, and clubs to work together and get to know each other outside of the classroom or otherwise defined roles within other groups/clubs. Volunteers: Open to all LECOM students, students will sign up on a google sheet in advance which will be limited to approximately 200 packing shifts total. This year, the sheet will have slots separated by each of the five packing tables to ensure volunteers spread out and fill each table evenly. Similarly, less staging/box assembly/loading shift volunteers will be available as discussed with Dr. Shabloski. Please see google sheet example from last year below for reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1smdm2KuW2hFjxWuJLnEqmc31rrsIVpk5v3corD4BUEM/edit#gid=0 In addition, as discussed with Dr. Shabloski, we will make a brief powerpoint for volunteers to review prior to coming to their shift, which will outline the steps and roles at each table. This will ensure volunteers will arrive ready to start packing and will not need too much coaching prior to getting started. Funding: Last year we packed nearly 42,000 meals, at 216 meals per box and 194 boxes, priced at ~$36 per box. This equates to a $7000 donation from SGA funds. We plan to stick with this packing amount as our goal, and the $7000 will again come from SGA funds. Additionally 12 tables and 8 folding chairs will be rented from Crazy Monkey in Erie who will deliver and pick up the tables and chairs. This will allow us to form five tables of two for each packing station (one more than last year), one table for check in, and one table for the loading and box making area, with the chairs for check in and one for each station. This will cost approximately $110.80 per the Crazy Monkey website, which will also come from SGA funds. Covid Protocol: All attendees will be required to follow current LECOM masking protocols for the entirety of their time volunteering. Attendees will follow all guidelines for exposure and symptoms as outlined in the portal screening form. Hand sanitizer will be provided. Students who are actively packing at the stations will be required to wear hair nets as well.
