Just 50 Cents Campus Challenge Update!

March 4th, 2010 by Erin Finucane Leave a reply »

With only four weeks left to go in the first-ever Just 50 Cents Campus Challenge, our Student Ambassadors are finishing strong! Raising awareness and funds to fight diseases most people are unfamiliar with is no easy task, but advocates from across the globe have taken on the challenge with creativity, perseverance, and passion.  Students at GWU Medical School are hosting lectures, happy hours, and bake sales; students at London School of Economics/ HPPF created a rap video and are running the Paris half-marathon this weekend; students at Boston University are hosting an NTD symposium; and students at Warwick Medical School are running the Coventry Half-Marathon later this spring.   As we enter the final stretch, the following campaigns lead in fundraising efforts:

$1631.00 LSE/ HPPF

$1191.00 GWU SPHHS (Manuel Claros)

$956.00 GWU School of Medicine

$630.00 University of Minnesota

$467.00 Harvard University (Sarah Sorcher)

Our students are an inspiration to the whole Global Network team. Keep up the great work! We’ll see you at the finish.
