Fall Fest at SLU SOM 🍁: On Wednesday, Sept. 30, Queer Medical Alliance (QMA) and the Medical Student Government (MSG) Service Committee teamed up to host Fall Fest: a farmer’s market-style event featuring medical student vendors who fundraised for numerous local organizations by selling handmade goods, art, and gently-used clothing items.

In addition to QMA & MSG Service Committee, participating medical student groups included Student National Medical Association (@slu_snma), the Arts in Medicine Distinction, Gardening Interest Group (@slusom_gardening), Palestinian American Medical Association (@pama_slu), M2 Social Committee (@slusom2029), and the SLU SOM Health Protection and Education Service group. Funds raised at the event benefited non-profit organizations such as The SPOT Youth Center, the Adopt-A-Family program, Heal Palestine, Health Protection and Education Service of St. Louis, and Seed STL.

The event included a performance by The Amygdalas (@the_amygdalaas), a medical student band composed of Sophia Azim, Sachi Sharma, Joey Turner, and Shruthi Venkatachalam who create their own spins on popular music, covering artists ranging from Madonna to Noah Kahan.

Together, students raised a grand total of over $1,000 at Fall Fest! by @slu_som
