Dear GlobeMed at UC Supporters,
Happy new year! As we enter 2015, GlobeMed at UC is excited about all of the our upcoming events and grateful for all of the things we were able to accomplish last year with your support.
In 2014, we were able to fund and implement the thid phase of our Community Health Outreach Program (CHOP) and create a personal and dental hygiene curriculum for our workshops. This phase allowed us to broaden our reach into migrant schools and begin health education at a much younger age. We have been able to directly impact over 1,500 Burmese men, women, and children with our project. All of this would not have been possible if it were not for our amazing supporters. With your donations, we have been able to complete three projects - each a phase in CHOP - and touch the lives of over 3,000 Burmese migrants. We appreciate the incredible network of supporters we have developed and we tell our partner, Social Action for Women, just how much help we receive in order to implement our projects.
This upcoming year, we plan to finish fundraising for the fourth phase of CHOP which will be an extension of all three of our previous phases. We want to hold more workshops for more people and include all the topics previously discussed: reproductive health, preventative health, mental health, and personal/dental hygiene. We hope to directly impact 3,600 Burmese migrants and indirectly impact 6,000 more through the subsequent dissemination of the material covered. In order to execute this phase, we are hoping to raise $10,000 by June 2015. We have already raised about 40% of our goal through on-campus events and personal donations, but we still need help!
As a supporter of our organization, we are reaching out to you first. While we continue to grow our support network, we still rely on our dedicated donors and supporters who have been with us since the founding of our organization at University of Cincinnati. We hope you will consider helping us - even a $10 makes a difference!
We are so grateful for everyone who has taken the time to learn about our organization and supported us for the past three years! Thank you for being amazing friends, family members, and generous community members. We are so lucky to have you all.
Yours in Health,
Ceejay Boyce, Codee Boyce, & the entire GlobeMed at UC Chapter
