Help Us Celebrate Christmas With Our Mentees and Teach a Small Group Session While You're At It! It's Our Small Group Learning Kickoff. Saturday, December 19, 2020
Click here and register to attend our Christmas Party! Help us kick off our small group learning sessions! Become a group facilitator at our December Saturday Morning Professor.
Calling All Physicians and Medical Students! Want to make a difference this holiday season? Join us for a wonderful time at our annual Christmas party and last Saturday Morning Professor of the calendar year. If you are a physician or medical student mentor that would love to get more involved with our students, our upcoming Saturday Morning Professor is the event to attend. This is also a great opportunity for our newest mentors to get involved as some have not yet been assigned a mentee this cycle because you may have joined after our Annual Mentee Mentor Match Day. There is always a mentoring role for you and we want to extend this opportunity for you to get more involved. Our upcoming December session will feature our Annual Christmas Party and Small Group Learning Kickoff.
Our Small Group Learning Sessions are especially for our newest student mentees in the "Intro to History Taking and the Patient" Curriculum. Our small group sessions will help students to practice and fine tune skills learned so far throughout the year.
Please set aside your favorite meal or snack and join us in the zoom room for games, prizes and more at our Annual Christmas Party. You are also invited to share words of encouragement to keep our students motivated! The zoom link with instructions will be in your confirmation email. Also, students will open up their Christmas gifts together as a family thanks to Santa's Helpers who will deliver them before we meet that Saturday. Small Group Learning Kickoff Sessions will begin immediately following our Christmas festivities.

OUR MENTEES IN ACTION
The goal of I AM ABEL FOUNDATION is to identify and engage the large pool of untapped gifts, intellect and talent among our inner-city youth who are interested in careers in medicine and have a heart to serve and give back. Our goal, through our one on one physician mentoring, didactic seminars, conferences, learning and skill building programs are to prepare our successors in medicine. We promote medical school readiness and provide our scholars what many lack – guidance and opportunity. Our work has recently gained the recognition of the Obama Foundation who featured our work both locally and nationally. It’s the philosophy of our foundation that we must leave a wedge in the door for those who are to follow. We are therefore devoted to promoting and mentoring the qualities of excellence, leadership and humanitarian service to our mentees.

We recognize that 2020 has been a hard year on all of us, especially our Healthcare Heroes. Thank you for your service and for being a beacon of light to our mentees.
