Pouring from the Heart Fundraising Gala
THURSDAY • APRIL 13 • 6 P.M. • WESTIN HOTEL
Cost: $200/$2000
 

This annual "party with a purpose" provides crucial funding for our students and patients at the UMKC School of Dentistry. Proceeds raised fund student-patient clinical experiences that not only give our students crucial hands-on experience towards graduation, but also provide our patients with necessary treatments.

Enjoy an evening of fine food, fine wine and fine company all while supporting the students and patients of the UMKC School of Dentistry. The night wouldn't be complete without an auction and a few fun antics. Tickets are $200 individually or $2000 for a table of 10. Sponsorships available.
