Project Horseshoe Farm Fellowship

 

My name is Sonja Lazovic, and I am reaching out to you about an exciting opportunity for graduating UF students, especially any interested in medicine and community service. I was hoping you would be able to pass along some of the following information to any interested students. I am also happy to serve as a point of contact if anyone has any questions, or to set up an info session.

I am currently a Community Health Fellow at Project Horseshoe Farm, a nonprofit organization that works with local communities to address social determinants of health. Since 2009, we've had a unique “gap year” opportunity for college graduates who are looking for an immersive service experience.

As a graduating senior looking for opportunities last year, I wasn’t able to find many other options that offered such high levels of responsibility and hands-on experience in community health, education, organizational management, and leadership. Also, the organization provides housing and a monthly educational stipend. 

Project Horseshoe Farm offers Community Health Fellowship programs in Alabama and California. Alumni consistently express how transformative their Fellowship experience has been, and Fellows go to some of the top medical schools, graduate programs, and nonprofit organizations across the U.S.

We would appreciate your help in spreading the word about Project Horseshoe Farm. We are proud that the coming year will mark the 15th year of Horseshoe Farm’s Gap Year Community Health  Fellowship.  This year’s class will begin June 26th of 2023 and finish July 12th of 2024 at the Greensboro, Perry County, and Pomona sites.

The application deadline for the 2023-24 gap-year Fellowship is on February 12th, 2023. Our website gives a good overview of our programs, and you can find us on Handshake. I’d also be happy to share my personal experiences with you or any interested students.

  

We have attached a flyer to this email where you can find more information to share with your students. We are also more than happy to host a virtual information session for larger classes or small groups. Thank you so much for being willing to help spread the word about this unique opportunity to your students.

Sincerely, 

Sonja Lazovic

2022-2023 Project Horseshoe Farm Fellow

Passionate Musicians On Call UF Organization

Hello everyone, I am part of a new health disparities-related student organization called Passionate Musicians On Call. If you play an instrument and would love to get involved by showcasing your talent to underserved communities, feel free to fill out this interest form.

 

PMOC is an upcoming initiative focused on providing musical performances to underserved communities while addressing the social determinants of health. Performing arts are well-known for providing potential well-being and health benefits to active listeners induced in social stress environments. Our target populations include individuals who are low-income, homeless, disabled, immigrants, socially disadvantaged, geographically deprived, and chronically ill. The goal is to have a variety of musical groups perform at our partnering organizations with live entertainment. Members will also have the option for solo performances to showcase individual skills. Throughout the year, we plan on having general body meetings to discuss ongoing projects and host exciting social events to boost team morale. You will be contacted by the president after filling out the form.

 

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you.

Some of our graduates from the MS in Pharmacology program have also gone to health professional schools, and a good amount of our graduates have gone into the industry, including biotechnology, pharmaceutical, consulting companies, government agencies, and non-profit organizations.
