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
	February 15, 2024 at 1:52 PM	Approved	Food For Kids Event	LECOM Med Erie - SGA	02/15/2024	04/20/2024	Time & Date: April 20, 2024, from 10:00am to 4:00pm. The event consists of a 30-minute setup, followed by two volunteer shifts lasting 2 hours each, and concludes with a 30-minute cleanup. We will be collaborating with Radiology Club to assist us in set up and clean up. Location: Garage West Building Event Overview: To make a strong event for National DO day, we're thrilled to team up again with Food for Kidz, a remarkable organization committed to combating global hunger. They assist groups in hosting mobile food packing events. A comprehensive guide for event organization is available on their website and attached here for reference. In a nutshell, Food for Kidz will supply the dried food and necessary equipment for packing. Our SGA members and Radiology Club members will begin the setup upon the truck's arrival. Volunteers will then form teams to pack rice-soy protein meal packages, each containing six servings. These packages are placed in boxes (36 packages per box), which are sent globally to children in need. For context, our last contribution went to Ukraine. Remarkably, a single box can sustain a child for about 7 months. The event wraps up with volunteers assisting in loading the packed food onto the Food for Kidz truck. The organization then manages the distribution and delivery. Objective: Our aim is to align with LECOM's mission and the principles of osteopathic care by offering an avenue for students to combat global hunger and serve the less fortunate. This event, open to all LECOM students, fosters collaboration and camaraderie, transcending typical academic or group affiliations. Volunteer Info: All LECOM students can participate, with sign-ups facilitated through a Google sheet capped at around 200 packing shifts. To optimize distribution, slots are categorized by packing tables. We will ensure that students will only be designated to the location they are assigned too so that there is less confusion like there was last year. Additionally, a concise PowerPoint will be shared with volunteers to familiarize them with the packing process, ensuring efficiency upon arrival. Budget: Last year's efforts resulted in approximately 42,000 meals, encompassing 194 boxes at around $36 per box, which translated to a $5000 donation from SGA funds. We intend to maintain this benchmark. Furthermore, 12 tables and 8 chairs will be sourced from Crazy Monkey in Erie for roughly $554.91, as listed on their website. These expenses will be covered by SGA funds. Safety Protocols: Participants must adhere to LECOM's prevailing mask guidelines throughout the event. They should also abide by exposure and symptom criteria as specified in the portal screening form. Sanitizers will be accessible, and those packing will be required to wear hair nets.
