The MMSA Student Initiative Grants (SIG) program was developed to ensure that Manitoba medical students have the opportunity to obtain funding for their innovative projects and initiatives. Applications are evaluated on their enhancement of the experience of Manitoba medical students, enhancement of the local, provincial, and national community, as well as the level of planning evident in their proposal.
We received numerous applications highlighting the ideas of our students, and are happy to announce the grant recipients of our Fall 2020 cycle:
COVID-19 Vaccination Information Campaign: Anmol Mann, Philip Kawalec
Humans of Healthcare: Allison Balasko
Traditional Healing Integration with Western Medicine: Ben Carriere, Jessica Ellis
Valentines Day care packages for Indigenous Elders in Assisted Living: Jessica Ellis
Thank you to all of our applicants! We look forward to seeing what you will accomplish in the future!
