The goal of Advocates for Health is to help connect Brandeis students with health-related volunteer opportunities in order to minimize healthcare disparities within the Greater Boston Community. Students can volunteer with CareOne–a skilled nursing facility in Newton–where they can support residents and improve the patient experience by planning activities and interacting directly with patients. Project Sunshine is another avenue to service in healthcare in which volunteers can create care packages and cards to send to children at local hospitals. They can also volunteer with Healthy Waltham, a local nonprofit, to improve food access to underserved populations in Waltham. Advocates for Health also offers volunteer opportunities with The Family Van, a mobile clinic that performs health screenings for underrepresented populations.

We are Asian Baptist Student Koinonia, a Christian fellowship at Brandeis composed of students who seek to know and love Jesus Christ through a life shared with Him and each other. Through Bible studies, fun fellowship and activities, lots of food, and real friendships, we learn more about God, one another, and ourselves.

All are welcome to join us, whether you are looking for a spiritual home away from home or are wondering what this Christianity thing is all about. College is a busy place, and sometimes you might need somewhere to come as you are, find a listening ear and encouragement, be challenged, and discuss life's big questions.

The group is not limited to Asians, Baptists, or people who know what Koinonia means (but FYI, it means fellowship in Greek). Other Boston-area universities with ABSKs include Harvard, Wellesley, MIT, Boston University, and Boston College.

Questions? Feel free to message us anytime! We hope to see you at our next event or at our weekly Friday Night Bible Studies!

BASO seeks to culturally empower African students and the student body at large to become socially, politically, and critically aware of African Cultures. Our goal is to enter the complexities of Africa as a continent by looking at the diversity of each country and understanding these diversities through a sociopolitical and sociocultural lens.
Through the use of discussions among members, intercultural events, and interactive workshops, myths can be dispelled, and dynamic understandings will be revealed. Africa is not just Uganda, Kenya, Ghana, Congo, Rwanda, Nigeria, or Mali; numerous countries constitute her very essence. Despite the overarching goal, even if this club leaves some with only a glimpse of Africa- the food, the music, a language-at least students will have gotten a salient and actual insight into a continent of many but a place of one.

Membership Benefits
* BASO allows members to find solace and community amongst each other.
* BASO creates an education space that brings the continent of Africa to the greater community through discussion, workshops, and events centered around Afro-Diasporic cultures and communities, leaving members with more knowledge about the continent as well as allowing the E-board to also learn from the general community.
