	January 30, 2022 at 1:48 PM	Approved	St. Patrick's Day Card Drive for St. Mary's Senior Center	SOMA	01/30/2022	03/07/2022	Proposed dates: Monday March 7th through March 11th Alternate dates: Monday March 14th through Wednesday March 16th Idea: SOMA will be putting together a St. Patrick’s Card Drive. This will be a contactless event, and we propose having collection boxes in the cafeteria. Students will be able to leave their cards for collection. Cards will be picked up at the end of the drive by Co-Chair Paarth Sharma or Co-Chair Smaran Teru. We will advertise this event to the entire Class of 2024 and class of 2025, so they are able to participate. At the conclusion of the card drive, we will arrange a date and time to drop off the cards to St. Mary’s Senior Center. This will be done in a contact-free manner. Why: SOMA wants to create a COVID-safe opportunity for students to get involved in the Erie community. Having this card drive creates an event that allows LECOM students to reach out and be involved with the school and community.

We have worked directly with Dupree to provide individually packaged ice-cream with separately packaged additives. The event is being run by cafeteria staff to simply hand out the ice cream to those who are interested. The cost is quoted for $0.70 per unit, provided in boxes of 48. We have requested two orders for ~96 units. The overall cost should be under $100. COVID Protocol: Our event follows in accordance with all LECOM COVID standards. There is no additional increase in risk due to the distribution and packaging of the food. * Given Dupree's preference to handle the food services separately, he will submit his own Food Service Form. For forthcoming events, we will be submitting the Food Form through the proper SGA channels.

In addition, we hope to apply the Class of 2025's available budget of $5,000 alongside a supplemental $2,000 from SGA for a total of $7,000 towards the group discount purchase. To receive the institutional discount, SGA will gather funds from the students directly and complete a purchase order. This will be done via PNC's Zelle deposits directly to the SGA account or check. Details of UWorld's PO requirements and banking information are attached. UWorld Contact: Megan Chaney mchaney@uworld.com COM1 180-days Retail: $459 Discount: $50 Institutional rate: $409 Current student sign-up list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1f0SXTrIyR7QR2rpmaC3D44rp_miSD06wrbu1rfdtFYw/edit?usp=sharing With our current sign-up of 142 people, we will make a maximum of 150 code slots available. Each student will be asked to pay a rate of $362 [(409*150) - 7000) / 150]. Once funds are gathered, SGA will purchase the exact number of codes that have been paid for. If all the slots are not taken, some of the SGA funds will be unused since students are already paying a higher rate. This process will avoid overdrafting our funds. I thank the administration for their generosity in helping our students attain studying resources that are almost essential for board studying.

We have a goal of fundraising $950 to put together 24 bags including backpacks, clothes, toiletries, bath supplies, books and toys for children in the foster care system. Since most kids have to leave their homes quickly, most have very few belongings; this gives them a chance to start new with some personal belongings at their new home. We are asking you to share the GoFundMe link on any and all social media platforms you have -- if you share the link, we will give you 1 service hour for every social media platform you post on (max of 3). We will be using the money to order everything off Amazon and Walmart to put together the bags. https://www.gofundme.com/f/erie-foster-bag-drive?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1
