April 3, 2022 at 2:40 PMCancelledNational Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) Food DriveClass of 202504/03/202205/14/2022The Second Harvest Food Bank of Erie reached out and wanted volunteers for their National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) Food drive that is going to take place on May 14th, 2022. This will be the 30th annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive where postmen pick up food from all over the city. People usually set out their donations the morning of the event near their mailbox and front door. The Food Bank is looking for volunteers between the hours of 10am-7pm to help with the drive. They’re also looking for some volunteers to be stationed at donation drop off sites located throughout Erie and would assist with loading a semi-truck with incoming donations. I know that COVID restrictions are easing up, but masks will be enforced with unvaccinated individuals, and other precautions will be taken to make sure students can be COVID safe. I know a lot of students really want to be more involved in the community and I think this would be a great idea for students to help the local Erie community and work together with different individuals.

February 20, 2022 at 3:07 PMApprovedTyler Christian DobratzLECOM SGA - Medicine - Erie02/20/202204/30/2022Food for Kidz Packing Event Time & Date: 12:00pm -6pm (1 hour set up, two 2 hour volunteer shifts, 1 hour clean up) Location: LECOM Cafeteria (or larger location if volunteer turnout exceeds capacity) Description: 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. Our volunteers will help set up all the packing stations and supplies. 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 (216 packages per box) which will then be sent to a child in need somewhere in the world. 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. We hope to hold this event as a large volunteer opportunity open to all LECOM students and faculty, that encourages students and faculty 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 and faculty Funding: Food for Kidz recommends raising approximately $20 per adult per hour of packing, to cover the costs of the food, supplies, and costs of running the event. After approval of the event, we will send out sign up forms in which volunteers can sign up for the shift(s) they would like. Based on the total amount of people signed up to volunteer for each hour, we can calculate the total amount of money needed to hold the event, which we hope to use SGA funding for. Ex. 50 people volunteering each hour x 4 hours x $20 = $4000 Covid Protocol: All attendees will be required to remain masked 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.
March 30, 2022 at 4:09 PMRejectedUkraine StrongWomens Health Club03/30/202204/30/2022This will be our third event of the semester. In an effort to support the people of Ukraine, the WHC e-board members will lead a workout for LECOM students at the Wellness Center parking lot on Saturday, April 30th at 11am. The event will be advertised as "Ukraine Strong". WHC board members will coordinate a body-pump exercise circuit to music, and lead participants through the workout for 45 minutes. Each participant will be asked to donate $10, and all proceeds will be given to 'Doctor's Without Boarders' in LECOM's name. This organization provides medical relief and responds quickly to crises around the globe, currently including Ukraine, Haiti, and Yemen. Although they cannot earmark donations for a specific location, we can choose to earmark ours for "Emergency Relief", helping those in dire need. A spreadsheet will be sent to the student body to 'sign up' for the event so we account for how many people will be attending. Money will be collected via cash on the day of the event. We think this will be a great way for WHC to bring together the LECOM community for a healthy study break and to support the health of women and children around the globe.
March 14, 2022 at 11:04 AMApprovedFighting the Opioid EpidemicSOMA03/14/202204/28/2022Idea: SOMA will be hosting a talk by Dr. Richard Morgan, DO who is currently a clinical faculty instructor at the NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine in Old Westbury, NY. This will be a virtual event through Zoom from 6-7PM EST in which Dr. Morgan will share his experience navigating addiction in the past and his path of recovery. He will share how to understand the signs and symptoms of addiction in health care professionals, and he will make us more aware of the ongoing opioid epidemic. Why: One of the pillars of SOMA’s overdose prevention task force is harm reduction. Harm reduction is a public health tactic that is used to reduce the consequences of drug misuse and overdose. Dr. Morgan will identify these consequences as they relate to opioid use, and how we, as medical students, can take action to fight the growing opioid epidemic in the United States. It will also allow students to ask any questions that they may have regarding this issue.
