Help with PPE costs for Medical Students! Continue to join with other UWI Pelicans and donate to purchase Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for clinical medical students previously who are now resuming their Practical Clinical Sessions in a phased reopening commencing November 2020. They have to provide their own PPE. For one month a student would need at minimum, 1 box of masks, 2 boxes of gloves and 2 cases of gowns (cost, which amounts to the equivalent of US$125.00). In the current pandemic, with tuition costs already high, these costs weigh heavily on students’ pockets. The Student Guild of the Faculty of Medical Sciences at UWI, Mona, especially, is requesting your assistance for this worthwhile cause. You may designate any campus however (for example - put Mona PPE or Cave Hill PPE in the designation box.) No amount is too small. Simply click here - www.uwi.edu/giving. My fellow Pelicans, I hope that you enjoyed reading this news from your Alma Mater! Continue to stay safe! Sincerely, Celia
