CCM serves as a support system for Chicano and Latino Pre-medical students. Educate and Develop a greater awareness of prevalent health disparities in our communities. Our volunteer pool is comprised mostly of CCM general members

Provides us with an office for our organization Advisors to help us plan and improve events. Workshops to teach us about funding as well as personal development.

  9. Community Partners Our partners consist mostly of Donate Life/One Legacy, but we also work with Be the Match We have recently become more involved with Donate Life/One Legacy and have met with them to discuss ways to improve our programs for the year We get supplies for our events through Donate Life Ambassador Training with Donate Life

  16. Recent Projects E-Campaign UC Irvine DoT Org Recently started and implemented in our last Give Life/Give Thanks Donor Drive Will allow us to gauge our success at our events and think critically on ways to improve them. Recently established a second chapter of DoT Org Worked with the campus CCM in order to establish this chapter. We are working closely with them and helping them with respect to funding applications, making connections with community partners, and inviting them to events.

  17. What we hope to see Working more closely with our community partners to collaborate on events and become more effective. Gain a connection with the UCLA Transplant center to see how we can work together. See further expansion of organizations that have a similar mission as DoT Org to increase the number of communities we serve.
