OHSU Friends of MSF

OHSU Friends of MSF We are a multidisciplinary group that raises awareness about MSF’s global humanitarian work.

We are a student led society, aiming to support MSF by:
1) Raising awareness of MSF’s work around the world;
2) Fundraising for MSF;
3) Encouraging our community to get involved with MSF. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an independent international medical humanitarian organization that delivers
emergency aid in more than 70 countries to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural o

man-made disasters or exclusion from healthcare. Views are our own and posts shared here do not reflect the official MSF page.

This past week, Friends of MSF at OHSU put together over 800 first aid kits for the Portland People’s Outreach Project, aka PPOP! PPOP does incredible work in harm reduction and we’re so grateful to have partnered with them a second year in a row. And a huge shoutout to the folks at Straight from New York Pizza on Hawthorne for donating food for our event - None of this is possible without our awesome community! 💪
