RMCAANA Mission
Statement
RMCAANA was formally established and inducted as an
Alumni Association of APPNA on 9th July 1998 at the 20th Annual summer
meeting of APPNA at Los Angeles, California.
It is heartening to know that there are more than 500 Rawalpindi Medical
College (RMC) graduates residing in USA
& Canada.It is only in the last two decades that RMC graduates have
started to come to the USA. Many of us felt the need to
form an organization that will not only represent as a prominent group
of Pakistani Physicians in North America
but also provide a social link between our colleagues and their
families. RMCAANA was thus formed. It is a totally non political,
autonomous and non profit organization. The prime goal of this
association is the welfare of RawalpindiMedicalCollege graduates in
North America. We will also make all efforts to work with
other similar organizations of RawalpindiMedicalCollege
graduates in Pakistan
& other countries. We have however our own constitution and will be
bound only by The bylaws of this constitution.
In addition, we want to help in the uplift of medical education
in Pakistan
in general & RawalpindiMedical
College
in particular. We hope to establish a channel through which we can
donate books, audio visual aids, computers, diagnostic and therapeutic
equipment to RMC. We also hope to sponsor top
RawalpindiMedical
College
graduates for residency training in USA. We will publish a newsletter at
regular intervals to keep in touch with each other, arrange meetings of
association at vacation and resort areas so that our families could also
interact with each other. We will also establish a network of J-I visa
waiver & practice opportunities for our graduates in
North America.
