Health for all is within our grasp, but we can only achieve it by working together. Message from the Co-Presidents

Dear Friends,

We are humbled and honored to say that the third year of GlobeMed at UVa has just concluded. This past year we have established a stronger base at our university and a closer relationship with our friends in Siem Reap, Cambodia. We could not feel happier to be a part of this network that we have come to regard as our family. This year, we met our goal of $5,500 for Build Your Future Today Center (BFT). Our members worked hard campaigning for our Annual Benefit Night, Global Giving, sports concessions, and other philanthropy events to help raise these funds. Additionally, we organized our third GROW trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia to work alongside BFT and its founder, Sedtha Long, for five weeks. Looking back on our accomplishments, we are aware that none of them would have been possible without the continued support and encouragement you all have provided. In the future, we hope to keep moving forward in strengthening our partnership with BFT and raising awareness about our mission. Leading our chapter this year has meant being resilient, patient, understanding, determined, and most of all, loving. We have grown tremendously, both as leaders and as individuals, and we cannot wait to do it all over again. To BFT, thank you for teaching us that “knowledge is hope” and “peace is development.” To our chapter, thank you for being some of the most motivated, inspiring, and dedicated individuals we know. And to our friends, supporters, and the rest of the GlobeMed network, thank you for giving us a new meaning of family. Since our founding in Sincerely, August 2011, our Brogan Jones and Jessica Yoo Co-Presidents chapter has grown 2013-2014 GlobeMed at University of Virginia from 11 members to 25 members. About Us GlobeMed at UVa

GlobeMed at the University of Virginia (UVa) was founded in the Fall of 2011 by a group of 11 motivated students. Shortly after, GlobeMed at UVa was partnered with the Build Your Future Today Center (BFT) in Siem Reap, Cambodia. To date, GlobeMed at UVa has raised over $14,000 for BFT to fund their Safe Child and Mother Project. Additionally, GlobeMed at UVa has produced about 50 dedicated chapter members, 18 outstanding alumni, and organized three successive GROW trips focused on project development and evaluation. . Our Partnership Build Your Future Today Center

Founded in 2006! The Build Your Future Today (BFT) Center was founded in 2006 to improve the lives of the neglected rural villages surrounding Siem Reap. Sedtha Long, a survivor of the Khmer Rouge genocide (which brutally murdered a fifth of Cambodia's population in the late 1970s) has changed the lives of hundreds through the comprehensive health, education, family peace--building, and microfinance programs implemented through BFT. Adopting a holistic, sustainable approach, BFT addresses common issues like malnutrition and the lack of life opportunities for disadvantaged families by building schools, providing educational materials, donating health supplies, providing medical attention, improving nutrition through training community chefs and home gardens, and supplying start-up loans for families to pursue new livelihoods. Siem Reap, Cambodia Population: 903,030 KEY FACT: Infant Cambodia underwent a mass genocide in the late 1970s, mortality: 51.36 which killed off a fifth of the population. Our partner's founder, deaths/1,000 live Sedtha Long, lost 10 of his 14 family members in this disastrous event. The high cost of healthcare in Cambodia births. Life limits its accessibility, while those who can afford to pay for expectancy: 63.78 healthcare often accumulate long term debt in doing so. years Specifically, fewer than 60% of the poor who need healthcare can afford it.

As our partner's project is focused on improving nutrition among mothers and children in local villages, we thought it would be a good idea to open people's eyes to the extent of the nutritional deficiencies. We passed out ziploc bags with 2 ounces of rice in each bag, and a note that stated, "This is what 1.5 billion people eat for a single day."

Dear Friends,

GlobeMed at UVA is planning fundraising events for the university and local communities to get involved in. We plan to promote awareness and action in students across the school to participate and raise funds for our partner in Seam Reap, Cambodia. Every year we have a large monetary goal that we work towards with fundraisers from bake sales, restaurant nights, concession sales at sporting events, letter writing, and dinner banquets. The fundraisers include the university community of students and professors, as well as local business owners in Charlottesville.

Sincerely, GlobeMed at UVA "Being a part of GlobeMed at UVA really helped me solidify the kind of work I want to pursue in my life. Through my participation, I learned the importance of respectful and culturally- sensitive partnership, effective monitoring and evaluation of health and development programs, and leadership and advocacy skills--these lessons solidified into values that I intend to keep with me as I aspire to be a global health professional.“
