ANNUAL REPORT
GLMS Foundation 60th Anniversary
It was a huge year for the GLMS Foundation as we said goodbye
to Director Terry Todd and welcomed Ashley Cassetty to lead
the organization into the future. This year marks the 60th an-
niversary for the Foundation with exciting new initiatives to
soon be launched.
The GLMS Foundation Golf Scramble, which is entering its
eighth year, has allowed the Foundation to award $173,000 in
scholarships to medical students. Thank you to the physicians,
health care organizations and local businesses which made
these scholarships possible. This year’s scramble will take place
at the Hurstbourne Country Club on Monday, September 24th.

Foundation, contact Ashley Cassetty at 502-736-6356.
Engagement and Outreach
Surgery on Sunday Louisville has expanded its reach in 2017-2018,
adding new programs in ophthalmology and expanding to new cities in
Kentucky and Indiana. It also received help from an unexpected source
as GLMS Vice President Dr. Frank Burns raised $43,043 for the program
through the Dancing with Prospect Stars charity event.
The Healing Place opened its new men’s campus in early 2018. While
the campus is still under construction, it will add nearly 200 beds for
Louisville residents struggling with addiction. The Healing Place recently
hosted a successful Celebrate Freedom Dinner which raised $250,000
for the project.
Supplies Over Seas continued its mission of bringing hundreds of tons of
supplies to countries in need. Sadly, the founder of Supplies Over Seas,
Dr. Norton Waterman, passed away in 2017. His memory was honored
at the Health and Hope Breakfast on October 20.
