Alok Shrestha, an enthusiastic young medical student at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Suwanee, GA is raising funds to run and organize a small clinic in Nepal this summer. He is taking lead on this project as a part of an International Medicine Club at his school, which plans on sending a group of medical students to Nepal for two weeks to volunteer and promote public health in a rural community. Despite being raised in Georgia, Alok still has strong ties to Nepal and Nepalese culture. Alok had the opportunity to spend time with his family in Nepal last summer and learn more about his heritage and connect with his roots.
