Our Crowdfunding Groups
DePaul's Student Occupational Therapy Association (SOTA) aims to optimize students knowledge and appreciation of Occupational Therapy through providing networking, educational, and social events on and off campus. These events include attending the Illinois Occupational Therapy Association (ILOTA) Conference in November and the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) Conference in March. Many of the conference events have an attendance fee along with independent traveling/hotel fees. In addition to events, SOTA aims to support each student through providing resources necessary for their academic and clinical success (funding books, necessary background testing for fieldwork, etc.). However, none of this can happen if we do not fundraise for our cause. That being said, SOTA is asking for donations to support our student Occupational Therapists at DePaul University. Since our program is in our second year, we will be making the most of any donation provided in order to improve our OT program and SOTA chapter.
Any donation would be appreciated. Thank you for your consideration!
