	August 9, 2022 at 6:22 PM	Approved	Essential Items Drive for USCRI Erie	Class of 2025	08/09/2022	09/19/2022	International Institute of Erie/ USCRI (517 E 26th St, Erie, PA 16504. Phone number 814-452-3935) Since 1980, 8,839 newcomers have been resettled in the Erie area with assistance from USCRI. Refugees resettled in Erie come primarily from Bhutan, Eritrea, Somalia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Syria, Iraq, Ukraine and Russia. Newly arrived refugees receive a comprehensive set of services including housing placement, cultural orientation, school enrollment, coordination of initial health appointments, and employment preparation and placement. I have reached out to Gretchen Fairly, Development Associate at USCRI and she said she would love to receive new or gently used donations to ensure that each refugee is provided with basic items that are essential to daily life. Some essential items she listed were first aid kits, thermometers, masks, diapers, and baby products. I have attached a full list of needed items to this form. I would love to have a donation box outside the security office where students could drop off essential items! Every item donated will count for 0.5 volunteer hours and students can receive up to a maximum of 3 volunteer hours. I would like to have the drive from September 19th - 28th to ensure enough time for students to get the essential items. The Class of 2025 student council board will collect all donated items and deliver them to the USCRI at a later date.
	September 12, 2023 at 10:18 AM	Approved	Erie Zoo's Annual ZooBoo	SOMA	09/12/2023	10/20/2023	SOMA is looking to gather a group to volunteer at Erie Zoo’s ZooBoo event.

By doing this, SOMA hopes to provide a way for LECOM students to connect with the local Erie community in a fun manner celebrating the upcoming holiday. Since it will be getting into the fall, should COVID numbers begin to rise we will be sure to encourage masking and distancing to help take precautions and mitagate spread.

	March 13, 2025 at 9:43 PM	Approved	Erie VA Medical Center Bingo Night	Internal Medicine Club	03/13/2025	04/14/2025	The Internal Medicine (IM) Club will be hosting a Bingo Night at the VA Hospital in collaboration with the Military Medicine Club. Members who have paid dues upon joining either club are eligible to sign up as volunteers for this event. The event is scheduled for Monday, April 14th, from 6:00 to 7:00 PM. The VA Hospital has requested that we limit participation to 4 volunteers. Two individuals will manage the bingo stand, while the other two will assist on the floor by checking bingo cards and ensuring a smooth experience for participants. For prizes, we plan to distribute $2 cash to each winner. Currently, this is a one-time event; however, if successful, we hope to establish it as a recurring event on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly basis, depending on the hospital's capacity. Any event-related concerns should be directed to Natalie Woznicki, Recreation Therapist at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, who played a key role in organizing the event and will be providing guidance. Additionally, at least one executive board member—President Pietro Elliott, Vice President Sanjana Dasari, Secretary Elle McGregor, or Treasurer Lucas Nguyen—will be present to ensure the event runs smoothly.

	June 27, 2019 at 8:17 AM	Cancelled	Erie Pride Parade Volunteer Table	Allies	06/27/2019	06/28/2019	Allies has a table at the annual Erie Pride Parade this year, and will be providing individuals with free blood pressure screenings and discussions on other health topics. Dogs provided by Dr. Dunbar will be there as well to make the table more approachable. We also plan on asking these individuals about their experience with healthcare in order to improve ourselves as future physicians.
	October 5, 2022 at 7:25 PM	Cancelled	Erie Otters Night	Class of 2025	10/05/2022	11/05/2022	We want to use our class funds to buy tickets for the Nov 5th otters game. The purpose of this event is to allow for a break from our studies and facilitate a mental health break for our students. Additionally, this would help enhance the camaraderie of the class of 2025 as we head into our final semester of didactic learning. Details: I was thinking 30 tickets based upon a current ongoing poll within the class (could be less). Once the results of the poll is finalized later this week, I will have a set interest of the number of students interested in tickets. The prospective date is Nov 5th at 7 pm. I have spoken with an Otters representative and he said: "Our ticket prices are $14 center ice, $12 west end or $10 east end." If we reserve 30 tickets the cheapest option would be $300 with the most expensive being $420. CARP plan: as this is an event during the (hopefully) low covid incidence rate in erie county, we would not have a specific COVID plan in place. However, each student will be sitting in a designated section surrounded by other lecom students to ensure that the spread of any potential diseases can be limited. Additionally, we will have an exact list of students that attended the event in case there is a need to contact them afterwards. Again, this would be an excellent way for LECOM students to get out and enjoy the many great events that Erie has to offer while also serving as a mental health escape for a few hours!
	December 12, 2023 at 5:51 PM	Approved	Erie Otters Game	Class of 2026	12/12/2023	01/06/2024	As a class board, we want to sponsor tickets to an Erie Otters game on Saturday, 1/6/2024, in efforts to boost class morale and provide a community bonding experience for the Class of 2026’s last semester together! We are offering free tickets to the entire class, limiting ticket availability to 100 in efforts to control attendance. We would purchase as a group to keep everything seated together. Dr. Kulesza is going to chaperone the event for us. We think this would be a wonderful opportunity for the class to spend some quality time together and be a nice event to start our last semester.
	October 25, 2022 at 12:29 PM	Expired	Erie Oncology Wellness Center - Wig & Beauty Salon Item Drive	Oncology Club	10/25/2022	11/07/2022	The Erie Oncology Wellness Center is an independent non-profit devoted to helping patients undergoing radiation and/or chemotherapy. One aspect of their care is a Wig & Beauty Salon. They have plenty of wonderful wigs, but lack in the 'beauty' side of make-up and skin care patients. We are planning on gathering supplies to help these oncology patients dealing with hair and skin problems. As for the products gathered, I have this baseline from the clinic: "It seems that the makeup line that would be best is NYX. They are vegan-free and priced fair compared to some of the other brands. For lotions and such, Neutrogena is recommended. Both brands are sold at Ulta. The products we would like to have on hand are face soap/cleaners, face lotion, foundation, powder, blush, eye shadows, eye liners, brow pencils or temp tattoos, lip balms/sticks. Because we have women of all colors, a variety would be great. We don’t expect you to get everything, but any donation of these products would be most helpful as we stock the ‘beauty’ portion of our Wig & Beauty Salon. We are most appreciative of your willingness to help. We would be happy to provide a tax receipt to you if you give us a value on what you’ve donated since we are a non-profit." The drive would run from November 7th to November 14th. Every item donated will count as 0.5 hours for a maximum of 3 hours (as per previous events).
	March 21, 2023 at 2:42 PM	Approved	Erie Cancer Wellness Donation Drive	Oncology Club	03/21/2023	04/03/2023	We are hosting a Donation Drive for the Erie Cancer Wellness Center from April 3-April 17. There is a list of items that the Wellness Center is currently in need of: unused scarves/hats, new earrings, plastic/metal wig stands, wig shampoo/conditioner, office supplies (pencils, markers, post-its), hand sanitizers, cancer related books for their library, anti-slip socks, and heating pads. Each item will be worth 0.5 volunteer hours, with a maximum of 2 volunteer hours possible for each student. I have emailed the Security Office asking for their approval to place boxes in the front for the students to place their items in. The Oncology Club will be picking up the donations daily at 5pm and will be placed in Shahnaaz Sakkaria's car. The donations will be dropped off on April 17th at 10 am to the Erie Cancer Wellness Center by Shahnaaz and two of the club members assisting her. We have also partnered with SSP with 2 volunteer hours counting towards that club as well.
