Emily and Governor Joe Manchin bite back

December 06 2007

As a Buzzcuts finalist, I recently completed phase one of my three part "Bite Back" malaria awareness campaign at West Virginia University. In this stage of the campaign, I collected 2,000 signatures of WVU students, who pledged their support in fund raising for malaria prevention. I took the petitions to West Virginia's capitol building in Charleston and had the chance to speak with Governor Joe Manchin about the campaign! The governor pledged his support to the campaign and to malaria fund raising initiatives world wide.
