Hello everyone, I’m Zainab, a fourth year medical student, and I’d love to be your Events and Fundraising Officer for this year. I joined UCL Friends of MSF last year and thoroughly enjoyed attending the events and learning more about the organisation.
The work that MSF does globally is so important, and heavily dependent on charitable donations in order to maintain neutrality and access to areas of conflict and political instability. Therefore I am really passionate about fundraising for MSF through Friends of MSF UCL events, both internally and in collaboration with other universities. As a flagship event, I would love to organise a Charity Gala with the other Friends of MSF societies to raise money to support the lifesaving care and treatment that MSF provides. Additionally, I look forward to running regular fundraising events throughout the year, such as bake sales, fun runs and charity quizzes.
I have extensive experience in organising both university-level and national events, including a recent national Pathology Conference with over 100 attendees, and two years on the RUMS events committee. I am excited to put my skills and dedication to good use to contribute to the meaningful work that MSF carries out.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my candidacy- your vote would mean a lot.
