	January 30, 2022 at 1:48 PM	Approved	St. Patrick's Day Card Drive for St. Mary's Senior Center	SOMA	01/30/2022	03/07/2022	Proposed dates: Monday March 7th through March 11th Alternate dates: Monday March 14th through Wednesday March 16th Idea: SOMA will be putting together a St. Patrick’s Card Drive. This will be a contactless event, and we propose having collection boxes in the cafeteria. Students will be able to leave their cards for collection. Cards will be picked up at the end of the drive by Co-Chair Paarth Sharma or Co-Chair Smaran Teru. We will advertise this event to the entire Class of 2024 and class of 2025, so they are able to participate. At the conclusion of the card drive, we will arrange a date and time to drop off the cards to St. Mary’s Senior Center. This will be done in a contact-free manner. Why: SOMA wants to create a COVID-safe opportunity for students to get involved in the Erie community. Having this card drive creates an event that allows LECOM students to reach out and be involved with the school and community.
	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.

	July 31, 2022 at 9:08 AM	Approved	SAAO OPP review sessions	SAAO	07/31/2022	08/09/2022	I would like to request SAAO forum reviews for every Tuesday night this Fall semester. This will allow us to have approval in time to have a forum before the first practical on August 10th. We will meet every other Tuesday, but having all Tuesdays reserved will let us make changes in the our schedule depending on the practical schedule.

	February 9, 2022 at 7:50 PM	Approved	Suturing Clinic	ACOS-MSS	02/09/2022	03/11/2022	ACOS-MSS would like to provide the opportunity for the maximum amount of interested students to learn the basics of suturing while ensuring that all COVID protocols are thoroughly followed. To achieve this, we would be holding two small group clinic sessions over the course of two separate dates rather than one large event. Each session will last three hours, and members may only sign up for one slot. By doing so, it will not only drastically limit the amount of potential contact between attendees but also minimize exposure time and always allow for ample social distancing. Dr. Jung will be facilitating this event with the rotating assistance of Dr. Coughlin and Dr. Risavi (other attendings will also be notified to maximize efficiency). During these small group clinic events, the following guidelines will be strictly followed: 1.) We will have a full roster of every individual who has signed up for the clinic 2.) We will have a check-in for all members and staff who attend the suturing clinic 3.) We will require masks, and uphold social distancing of at least 6 feet 4.) We will sanitize before and after the suturing clinic to avoid the potential spread of COVID 5.) We will create a screening form for all members that sign up and require that they disclose any signs and symptoms, travel history, and close contact history prior to attending 6.) Unvaccinated individuals will be allowed to attend, but they will be placed at a separate table, again maintaining at least 6 feet for proper social distancing. 7.) We will cap each session at 50 individuals to mitigate the potential spread of COVID *Our casting clinic permitted 50 individuals and was approved on November 18th, 2021. The event was ran smoothly and no issues ensued.

	February 14, 2022 at 12:35 PM	Approved	Micro Game Night	SNMA	02/14/2022	03/17/2022	SNMA Erie would like to host a game night to review microbiology with Dr. Keller. Students will be organized into teams to play a trivia game related to different topics in microbiology. The purpose is to help MS2 students refresh their knowledge of the material before beginning dedicated board studying, and to help MS1s practice their knowledge from core. We would like to host this event in Lecture Hall D to accommodate students and proper content review. The event would take place for 1 hour, and we would like to host the event sometime in March, however the date listed below may be subject to change.
	February 16, 2022 at 7:12 PM	Approved	SOMA Food Drive with Second Harvest Food Bank	SOMA	02/16/2022	03/28/2022	The Student Osteopathic Medical Association at LECOM is partnering with Second Harvest to sponsor a food drive for those in need in the local community in Erie.

	February 20, 2022 at 3:07 PM	Approved	Tyler Christian Dobratz	LECOM SGA - Medicine - Erie	02/20/2022	04/30/2022	Food for Kidz Packing Event Time & Date: 12:00pm -6pm (1 hour set up, two 2 hour volunteer shifts, 1 hour clean up) Location: LECOM Cafeteria (or larger location if volunteer turnout exceeds capacity) Description: 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. Our volunteers will help set up all the packing stations and supplies. 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 (216 packages per box) which will then be sent to a child in need somewhere in the world. 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. We hope to hold this event as a large volunteer opportunity open to all LECOM students and faculty, that encourages students and faculty 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 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.

We have had previous meetings at this location, and the church is willing to let us continue to use the space. There is ample space to be able to stay 6 feet apart and social distance. We will require masks be worn the entire meeting, have a sign up sheet prior to the event to see how the room needs to be set up to ensure social distancing, and take attendance at the meeting.
