<p>However, I have given specifically to an international student from my undergrad to attend my dental school. About 20 years ago, an undergrad professor put together a group of about 20 people to pay for this young man’s dental education. (Group was anonymous, though I knew about half.) We contributed for 4 years, student kept us updated, and he returned to his native country as well-trained dentist. I would do that scenario again.</p>
