Congrats to Our New Officers!
Hello all,
Thank you to all of those who were able to make it to the meeting last Wednesday. And for those of you who were unable to, that's alright! That's what this blog is for! To you keep you updated and in the know in order to optimize your participation in Foothill College Medical Brigades.
First off, I would like to introduce our new officers:
VP of Medicine: Billy Zeng
Co-VP of Medicine: Garrick Hirasawa
Chair of Education: Adorina Betgorgiz
Co Chair of Education: Edgar Ramirez
Secretary: Jamie Lease
Congratulations to all of you! It's so great to see members that wish to assume more responsibilities and become more involved in the club. If you were unable to attend the election meeting and you did not get the chance to run for the position you wanted, no worries! There will be plenty of opportunities for participation when we begin forming committees for fundraising, PR, and obtaining medical/dental supplies. Also, the role of Secretary and OBD Representative are quarterly commitments. So, if one of these positions was one you were shooting for, there's always another chance next quarter.
Our next meeting will be held Wednesday, Nov. 28th, 2012. Same time and location as usual: 12PM - 1PM in Room 5302. During this time we will discuss
Fundraising: Let's get the ball rolling as early as possible! So, come wearing your brainstorming caps! I have also emailed a Donation Request Letter to all of you to use as a template for asking for contributions from friends and family. We can discuss this letter further during the meeting if there are any questions.
Forming Committees: Fundraising, Outreach (PR), and Attaining Medical/Dental supplies are all huge jobs and will require entire committees. Here we will discuss heads of committees and who will assume positions in each committee.
Location and Date of the Next Brigade. Our choices are currently between Honduras, Panama, and Nicaragua. I will prepare a short presentation discussing a bit about each country and the pros and cons of having the brigade in each one. Hopefully it will help us all come to a consensus.
Other than that, have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Here's a charming little video to get you through the week: Always Keep Exploring!
Kind Regards, Hana Arumi
