Dear Dr. Sanfilippo: Welcome to Emory University. We look forward to your leadership at this critical moment in Emory\'s future and in the Emory-Grady relationship. As health professional students and residents who came to Emory entirely or in part because of what Grady represents to our community and our state, we are deeply concerned by the tremendous challenges currently facing Grady. We believe that Grady is important to our future as health providers and public health experts and vital to the health of all citizens living in Georgia. We hope that as the new CEO for the Woodruff Health Sciences Center that you will be committed to working with Emory\'s current leadership to seek the long-term solution that is essential to Grady\'s survival. We urge to you to ensure that Grady is a priority and at the top of your agenda from your first day leading the Woodruff Health Sciences Center. Sincerely,

Seeing one hundred people sign this letter reminds me why I chose to train here in the first place. Grady is the heart of what we do and your support proves that we are not alone in fighting for its future.

I chose this path because Grady is the heart of our clinical training and keeps me focused on why I entered medicine in the first place. We are inching toward one hundred signatures and I need you to pass this link along to your classmates immediately so we can hit that mark before our meeting.

Without Grady this city is in serious trouble. Emory needs to step up and stop acting like it is someone elses problem.

So many people depend on Grady for their lives. Stop the budget cuts and start caring about the patients who have nowhere else to go.
