	March 29, 2021 at 11:49 AM	Approved	Virtual Be The Match Registration	SOMA	03/29/2021	05/01/2021	LECOM SOMA-Erie is requesting to compete in the Virtual Be The Match Registration Drive to help grow the Bone Marrow Registry. A blood stem cell donation can be a cure for blood cancer, sickle cell, and other deadly diseases. Patients and their families are counting on us to find their match. But not everyone has an equal chance - patients are more likely to match with donors from their same ethnic background. This recruitment drive will be online and completely virtual. LECOM-SOMA hopes to further educate the LECOM community, about how bone marrow donation works! There will be an information session about how bone marrow donation works, how to donate, and what the benefits of donation are. Attendees can go online to order a swab kit. Swab kits will be sent to their home and can be returned in the postage-paid envelope. No contact necessary! We will be competing throughout the month of May with other schools in our region (LECOM-SH and UNECOM) for the prized "Golden Swab"!

	January 30, 2022 at 2:40 PM	Approved	Valentine's Day Ice Cream Social	LECOM SGA - Medicine - Erie	01/30/2022	02/15/2022	Event: Valentine’s Ice Cream Social Purpose: To provide LECOM students with a simple, safe Valentine’s day treat. 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.

	December 20, 2022 at 12:48 PM	Expired	UWorld Class Discount	Class of 2025	12/20/2022	01/01/2022	The Class of 2025 and SGA are hoping to offer our students the 180-Day Full USMLE Step 1 Qback Access + COMLEX OMT 1 Supplement at a discounted institutional rate. 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.

	March 30, 2022 at 4:09 PM	Rejected	Ukraine Strong	Womens Health Club	03/30/2022	04/30/2022	This 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.

	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.

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.
