INFORM. INSPIRE. ENROL.
Hi everyone! I’m Veronica and it would be a privilege to represent you on the Belfast Marrow Committee as Treasurer.
I am a medical student at Queen’s, and I have been volunteering for Belfast Marrow over the past year. Its capacity to transform lives is truly inspiring and I am eager to play a more active role in the charity!
My training in Dementia Awareness and work as an NHS ward volunteer have nurtured a personal desire to be a voice for the vulnerable, and in my Committee role I would be a firm advocate on campus for those in need of life-saving stem cell transplants.
As Treasurer, I would use my strong public speaking skills (yes, I have Grade 8 Drama!) and enthusiasm to convey our positive and powerful message to students and encourage more to join in our fundraising activities. I am excited about grasping this unique opportunity to raise awareness of the charity across the Queen’s campus!
I have fundraised for numerous charitable causes over the years, and these experiences have equipped me with key insights into financial management and effective organisation necessary for this position as Treasurer. Know that I will be a fair, trustworthy and competent member of the team who is handy with a spreadsheet (no doubt my A Level Maths and love of medical statistics will prove useful!). I have excellent communication and problem-solving skills which I continue to develop through my passion for learning new languages and instruments.
A keen tennis player, I would love to partner with other university societies to create new and exciting fundraising opportunities and to further expand our fundraising base.
I am a conscientious and reliable team player, and I am so looking forward to working with you and the other members of the Committee to make this year a success for Belfast Marrow!
Let’s come together to inspire more donors, volunteers and fundraisers so that we can keep up our amazing work SAVING LIVES THROUGH STEM CELLS ♡
