Volunteers take Great Falls medical students out to dinner

This is the second year that community members have volunteered to take a group of first-year Touro students out to dinner.

This allows them to meet new people in the community, visit new restaurants, and feel encouraged being in a new place.

“Just seeing how much they love it here and they're really leaning into it, a lot of them are leaning into the western aspect, which is really cool. And then the hosts just love getting to connect with them; they're such bright individuals and we're really lucky to have them in our community,” expressed Jenn Galmeier, investment director for GFDA.

If you missed out on taking a group of students to dinner this year, don’t worry, you will be able to sign up for next year’s event. Click here to visit GFDA’s website for the details.
