The realistic medical supplies enable us to simulate authentic patient care scenarios, building our confidence and competence before we enter clinical rotations. We are committed to making the most of these resources, maintaining them with care, and using them to achieve excellence in our medical training program.

One student mentioned how the socks were \"the perfect gift at the perfect time\" because their family had been struggling to afford winter essentials. Small moments like these remind us that meeting basic needs can have a profound impact on a child's ability to succeed academically and emotionally. Your contribution has gone beyond simply providing socks—it has shown our students that their community cares about them.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we plan to continue offering this resource throughout the winter.
