Message from James Seneti - Organizing Secretary and Chairman Organizing Committee

    Introduction

The committee was formed by the first KeMUMSA executive members to assist in managing the logistics involved in planning and carrying out of various activities aimed at making life in medical school adventurous. It was headed then by Belindah Kathure (organizing secretary) and currently has a total of 6 members.

   Aim/Objectives

Our core business is to assist in planning of any event aimed at creating a united medical school in KeMU.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRPERSON

Driven by the spirit of excellence and the desire to have impacted positively to people around us, the organizing committee has made it its duty to develop and carry out activities aimed at nurturing our younger members who join us and foster unity and a sense of belonging to the existing ones. Though we have not gone unchallenged, having had a fair share of problems as a committee, we have always put aside our selfish agendas and worked for the best of our beloved association, KeMUMSA.
