News and updates

Fellow students,
Many of you have already gone to great lengths to donate money and supplies to the post-earthquake relief effort in Haiti. This effort, while emergent now, will require dedication and resources for the months and years of rebuilding to come. However, we all know that it cannot be emphasized enough that at this critical stage in the humanitarian crisis in Haiti, every penny will make a difference.
We opted to unite the students, faculty, and staff of IUSM to donate to Partners in Health, a non-profit organization which has been in Haiti for over 20 years. Through the PIH website, we can track IUSM donations, discuss fundraising efforts and strategies, and take pride in a communal effort as members of the state of Indiana’s only medical school.

Please contact Colleen M. Kiernan, MSIV (ckiernan@iupui.edu), with any questions.
Thanks for your support!
