You are invited to the Timmy Foundation Spring Call-Out Meeting.
Monday, March 1
8:00 p.m.
WH 005
The Timmy Foundation is a national organization with several collegiate chapters focused on eliminating the healthcare disparities in the developing world. The IU chapter was the first collegiate arm of the foundation and has supported programs in Honduras, Jamaica, The Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and currently Guatemala. Each year, our chapter prepares a medical brigade during spring break where students work alongside medical professionals and our international partners in delivering primary and preventative medical care to patients who do not normally have access to such services.
Aside from the brigades, IU Timmy is constantly active throughout the year with a variety of fundraisers for our international partners, medical supply drives, and domestic initiatives focused on improving health education in the community.
If you are interested in hearing more about our organization, helping out, or gaining a great leadership experience, we will be discussing applications for the 2010-2011 Timmy Exec Board at this meeting, along with other opportunities for involvement. While prior involvement in the group is a factor in choosing new leaders, it is not a requirement for all of the positions, so please come and check it out.
After we discuss leadership positions, we will be having a mock medical brigade to mimic the various stations of a typical brigade-day during spring break. Feel free to contact us at the following email address with any questions! We hope to see you at the meeting.
