Syrian American Medical Society at UCLA
The Syrian American Medical Society (SAMS) is an organization that provides medical care and humanitarian aid to those affected by the Syrian crisis. It was founded by Syrian-American healthcare professionals, and supports hospitals and clinics in underserved areas, and facilitates medical missions to aid these refugees. At UCLA, this organization will be a chapter of the global organization which will works to implement SAMS student programs in the university as resources for pre healthcare students interested in being a part of the SAMS mission. We will host fundraisers and develop projects that aim towards raising money for Syrian refugees. Pre medical and pre dental resources will be made available through workshops and student panels, and students can join various and impactful volunteer opportunities. SAMS membership will expand through this student involvement, thus promoting SAMS leadership and its mission.
