What is Alpha Epsilon Delta? Alpha Epsilon Delta (AED) is a pre-health honor society here at FSU that supports all pre-health students on their journey to becoming health professionals. AED welcomes all students on a pre-health track and offers them many opportunities like volunteering events, lectures from healthcare professionals, connections with current medical students, our annual Dean's Day event, many chances for raffles/medical preparation materials, and a community of like-minded peers. All proceeds of the race will go toward Tallahassee's Kearney Center which is striving to eliminate homelessness and hunger throughout the Big Bend Region. To learn more about the Kearney Center, click on this link (https://kearneycenter.org/volunteer/). A big thank you to everyone who has supported Alpha Epsilon Delta in our mission to eradicate homelessness/hunger during this year's Thanksgiving season. We're so excited to see many AED members as well as many new faces running together to achieve one goal.
