Local GA After recruiting and finishing exams, That was the perfect time to hold a Local SCMSA GA. It aimed at introducing SCMSA in more detail to our new members and to share the board's vision of the new term with all members. Board members gave short account about their respective committees followed by detailed longer sessions all over the week with their teams (Which was called SCMSA Week). The Local GA was a huge success. It brought all SCMSA family closer to each other and gave out the chance for new ideas to burst from the minds of the new members. During the GA, we have been honored by the presence of Ex-board members , Dr/Ahmed Rashid SCMSA Ex-sec gen ,Dr/ Ahmed Shokry SCMSA Ex-LPO , Dr/Mohammed Abdelrahman SCMSA Ex-LORA and Dr/Ramy Genaid SCMSA Ex-president and IFMSAEgypt president.

On the first campaign we were able to collect 130 blood bags (which is considered a record in our college: D ) The second campaign wasn’t the same success due to the delays and the fact that there were almost no students in the college which lead to the collection of 30 blood bags only over the 3 days
