She will do activities with the students and discuss techniques for managing emotions during a stressful time. We would like to use part of our budget to offer students a gift card for lunch if they participate in this workshop. This would be to help take the place of the student breakfasts that were previously offered to students but have not been due to the pandemic. We also recognize that this request is not greater than 30 days prior to the event, but we will not need any LECOM spaces to host the event and the speaker has agreed to present on this date so we are hopeful that we can get this event approved and give students this opportunity to work on stress management techniques going forward.

We will donate all the money we make from this action towards Lydia's Love Moments. This is a nonprofit organization founded by Kim Ghirardi that raises money for The RonaldMcDonald House in Pittsburgh, PA and Emily Rose Photography. Kim started this organization when she gave birth to her daughter, Lydia, who suffered from a congenital heart defect and required an extended hospital stay while fighting for her life. While her daughter endured an extended stay at Pittsburgh Children's Hospital, Kim received housing from The RonaldMcDonald House. Emily Rose Photography is a company that provides a photoshoot session of newborn babies that are undergoing treatment at the hospital who may not survive much longer. The Women's Health Club is excited to donate money to Lydia's Love Moments who then donates to these charities. In addition to the Chinese Auction, we will host Kim Ghirardi, the founder of Lydia's Love Moments, on November 14th 2022 on Zoom to invite club members to hear from Kim about how and why she started this organization and why she aspires to continue giving back to the organizations that impacted her life.
