2026 Bozeman Health Foundation Hospitality Gala
to support the
Bozeman Health Deaconess Regional Medical Center Emergency Department 

SATURDAY, APRIL 25th @ 6:00 PM
MSU SUB BALLROOMS, 751 W. GRANT ST, BOZEMAN MT

Saddle up, the annual Bozeman Health Foundation Hospitality Gala is stepping into the Spirit of the Wild West to celebrate our community's deep roots and bold vision for the road ahead!

FOR THE FUN: The Foundation's signature gala is one of Bozeman's most anticipated fundraising events, gathering more than 475+ community members and partners each year for a night of celebration, impact and, this year, Western charm.

This April, we're tipping our hats to our community's roots - a nod to the grit, heart, and pioneering spirit that built Bozeman Health and keeps us riding toward a healthier future. It'll be an evening of good company, meaningful impact, and a heap of Montana hospitality as we raise support for the expansion of Bozeman Health Deaconess Regional Medical Center's Emergency Department - ensuring every patient in crisis has timely access to the care they need.

FOR THE CAUSE: Funds raised will help expand Bozeman Health's Emergency Services Department to meet rising demand - adding treatment rooms, upgrading equipment, and improving patient experience. With the department operating at capacity - and utilizing hallway beds - expansion is essential to ensure timely, high quality emergency care

"Every minute counts in an emergency," said Eric Lowe, MD, Bozeman Health's emergency department director. "Our Emergency Department is the front line of care for our community, and as our region grows, so does the need for more space, more resources and more capacity to care for those who need us most during critical times."

Guests are encouraged to don their best boots, denim and Western-inspired cocktail attire for this evening of celebration.
