Period products are a basic need and access to them is meaningful.

With support from the Women of Emory Impact Circle, Gabriela Castilho 27C and Skyler Spears 27C are addressing period poverty through MHARC’s Period Pantry, which provides students with three-month supplies of menstrual products tailored to their individual needs.

This past spring, the student-led initiative distributed more than 2,420 products to 55 students across seven Emory schools.

Shenae Miller 21PH is busy. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she earned her master of public health degree at the Rollins School of Public Health while working as a physician. At the same time, she founded Betta Health, a company offering telehealth care to underserved communities in Jamaica. The 40 Under Forty honoree is currently a physician of orthopedics, sports medicine, and aesthetic medicine and public health practitioner. 🎉

Research with purpose can shape the future of health care.

With support from the Black Emory Impact Circle, the AAWC R.I.G.H.T. Path Program — Research, Instruction, Growth, Health Equity, and Transformational Thought Leadership — gives future health professionals hands-on research experience grounded in health equity.

Three of the program’s five research teams had abstracts accepted at national conferences, and all five are working toward publication.

What if your social feed was just… animals? 🐶🐷🐰

Ashley Quincey 98Ox 00C turned that joyful idea into Fureelz, a social platform built around animal content, connection, and giving back.

After more than 20 years in tech, she’s now navigating the start-up world with what she calls “relentless optimism.”

“For every no, I’m just that much closer to a yes.”
