Outreach

The Outreach subcommittee is responsible for procuring grants and donations that help to fund MSC FISH, as well as organizing the BigSib and Mentorship programs. Outreach is also responsible for maintaining MSC FISH’s social media presence and working to solidify our relationships with other committees through joint programs and events.

Outreach's Purpose Statement

Our purpose is to represent MSC FISH while upholding our values of creating a positive, encouraging, and inclusive environment in which we will uplift our freshmen and fellow staff by instilling a sense of pride in the subcommittee and its contributions while developing our professional skills through acquiring grants and donations, strengthening alumni and community relations, and further establishing MSC FISH’s media presence.

Fundz

The Fundz sub sub is responsible for organizing different fundraising events around campus to collect extra money for MSC FISH’s other programs! This sub-sub will be in charge of successfully operating these opportunities which will help support the other subcommittees in MSC FISH in their efforts to put on successful programs throughout the year. Freshmen in this sub-sub will get to bond with themselves, MSC FISH, and the surrounding communities over a common goal and gain confidence in their planning and sales skills.

Alumni Relations

The Alumni Relations sub-subcommittee is devoted to keeping MSC FISH alumni active in the organization as well as connecting the freshmen to the alumni network. This sub-sub will be in charge of the big sib program which pairs freshmen members to “Old School FISH” current students who were freshmen in the MSC FISH in years pasts. Alumni Relations is also responsible for the mentorship program which connects freshmen with alumni of both MSC FISH and Texas A&M that can help them both personally and professionally by providing insight into specific careers and more! The freshmen in this subcommittee will improve their ability to write emails and stay in contact with the alumni network.

Public Relations

The Public Relations sub-subcommittee within Outreach works to promote MSC FISH’s programs, values and service through our numerous social media platforms, apparel and quarterly newsletters. As a sub-sub the freshmen will be able to be creative when it comes to social media graphics and apparel. The freshmen will gain professional and confidence in their abilities through designing, contacting companies, and more!

Community

The Community sub-subcommittee focuses on developing MSC Unity and external involvement within MSC FISH. This includes fostering relationships with different MSC organizations and creating external service opportunities such as First Friday Booths and mini service opportunities. In addition, this sub-sub also has the opportunity to organize multiple profit shares with local businesses, as well as updating our alumni on MSC FISH through Newsletters. Freshmen in this sub-sub have the opportunity to create unity and form a community within the MSC as a whole along with our community with the mini programs we get to put on!
