The Center for Global Health recently hosted a Global Medicine (GMED) Benefit event, led by GMED Program Director and CGH faculty, Dr. Paul Blessing! The event was held at the beautiful Simmons Center for Global Chicago in downtown Chicago. Advocates of global health including community members, faculty, and corporate donors came out to support the global health work of our students in this special event which featured Peruvian food from the family restaurant of a GMED student! The absolute highlight of the evening was hearing student testimonials about the impact of the program and the meaningful patient interactions and projects they have been involved with. These experiences are integral to developing the next generation of global health leaders who will work tirelessly to improve health for all.
