January 15, 2020 at 7:22 PMExpiredSOMA Health Disparities Charity DriveSOMA01/15/202002/24/2020Directors: Kayla M. Trautman-Buckley and Jaclyn Natalone Proposal: Health Disparities Diaper Drive for Mercy Center for Women Date: February 24-28 Location: LECOM Cafeteria The Mercy Center for Women is a sponsored ministry of the Sisters of Mercy and is committed to enhancing the dignity of each person it serves, through the healing of body, mind and spirit. Mercy Center for Women provides safe and supportive transitional housing, education, case management and advocacy for homeless women with or without children. MCW relies on donations in order to help vulnerable women and children in the Erie community. These women may be homeless for a variety of reasons and the staff at MCW helps to facilitate access to healthcare and dental care as well as act a stepping stone to these women getting back to independent living. Currently, MCW is in desperate need of some supplies. They particularly need diapers sizes 3-5 and wipes. However, there are a plethora of items accepted at MCW. The goal of this charity event is to ask the LECOM community to come together to provide much need items to MCW. While the focus will be on diapers and wipes, MCW also needs blank planners to help the women manage their appointments. They also accept all canned food, including baby food, as well as toiletries and clothing. Every donation made will aid a woman to better take care of her child, stay safe from domestic violence, andstay inside, warm, and fed during the winter months and beyond. Collecting these items will help to promote the health and well-being of some of Erie’s most vulnerable. We will need permission for a box to be placed in the LECOM cafeteria, or another suggested space.

This resource will request MS2 students to share/feature simple, affordable, and nutritious meal ideas, with recipes and tips contributed by current students for 30 minutes of volunteer time. Since nutrition is a key component of overall health and academic success, we hope to encourage healthy habits from the start of their journey. In addition to the cookbook, we plan to include a “Things to Do in Erie, PA” section to introduce students to the area and highlight local attractions, restaurants, outdoor activities, and hidden gems. Our goal is to help new students feel both supported and excited about their new home in Erie.
