My name is Karen Kollar
I work at TMA as your Medical Student Section coordinator and am the person at the TMA building who answers all of your emails and phone calls.
Today I will be going over the funds that are provided to chapters to help offset your chapter expenses, NOT cover expenses.
We cover this information with everyone because it directly effects you whether you are the treasurer or not.
Explore various funding sources available to medical student chapters such as TMA/AMA funding, travel accounts, discretionary funds, executive council funding, and other sources. Each fund serves specific purposes like meeting expenses, travel costs, outreach efforts, and chapter involvement grants. Take advantage of these opportunities to support your chapter activities and initiatives.
