Emory scholarships in Anoopa's memory
May 5, 2005 5:56 PM
This year's Rollins School of Public Health merit scholarships were given in honor of Anoopa's memory. The text of the announcement:
The Graduating Class Gift Campaign (GCGC) Scholarships are awarded to second year Rollins School of Public Health students who have made significant, positive impact through service to the Emory and Atlanta community during their time at the Rollins School of Public Health.
In tribute and in recognition for the positive effect she had on many of us here at Rollins, especially among our first year class community, the 2005 GCGC Committee is dedicating this year's Scholarships in memory of Anoopa Sharma.
Through her writings, through her work and through the friendships she created in our community, Anoopa Sharma encouraged us to make an impact on the lives of those around us. In honoring Anoopa's memory in this way, the Class of 2005 recognizes the diverse and wide circle of friends Anoopa enjoyed both here and throughout the world. Anoopa's deep connections
and intense commitment to her public health work have inspired us all.

Hello Everyone,
I think we missed to submit Anoopa for CNN Heroes, I think Anoopa is the real Hero and she is the one who helped thousands and in my sense she is real hero and we really missed her for this honor. I asked Joshi and he also told me that he thought this event is for war heroes, no this is not for war heroes and this award and honors was for public, Anoopa was the real hero for CNN and the world. She would have been the best, we really missed her and i strongly suggest to submit her complete details and how much and what all we are doing on behalf of her in india and over here, we have to submit her for the next year nominee, i will be more happy to help and talk to CNN people and Dr.Sanjay Gupta from CDC.
Thank you,
