Thank you to everyone who joined us for the GFDA Annual Meeting this week. Together, we celebrated the accomplishments of our Ally Award recipients, recognized outgoing Board members for their service, and welcomed new leadership to our Board of Directors.
We also shared exciting news for the future of our region, including Touro University's announcement of a new law school and nursing program in Great Falls and Janicki Industries' selection of Great Falls for its next manufacturing campus - an $800 million investment expected to create more than 2,000 jobs!
These milestones reflect the momentum, partnerships, and vision that continue to drive economic growth across North Central Montana. Thank you to our investors, partners, and community champions for helping build a stronger future for the Great Falls region.
