Fuld Fellowships

NURTURING STUDENT INTEREST IN SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Currently, the school has three Fuld Service Learning Fellows: Guadalupe Castaneda (second from left), Leah Bercovitch, and Heather Allstrom. Lalita Kaligotla (left) oversees the Fuld Fellowships.

Heather Allstrom 22MN 24DNP had no ties to Emory University. She grew up a thousand miles away in Rhode Island, earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Connecticut, and volunteered with AmeriCorps at a shelter for pregnant and parenting women in Tempe, Arizona.

But when she decided to go to nursing school and started researching the possibilities, the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing jumped to the top of her list.
