Welch Allyn names second winner of Ripple Effect Contest
Welch Allyn and Heart to Heart International announced Kathleen Iles, a first-year medical student at SUNY Upstate Medical University, as the second winner of the 2014 Ripple Effect Contest. This summer, Iles and the other 2014 and 2013 Ripple Effect student winners will work alongside physicians and aid workers in impoverished and medically underserved communities in Haiti. The Ripple Effect Contest encourages medical students to use social media to share how they will create their own “ripple effect” of good in their community or globally. Entrants were asked to “like” the Ripple Effect program page on Facebook and share a picture with a short essay or a short video showcasing their “ripple effect” – a brief narrative about how they would “change the world” by using their training to help those in greatest need.
