You can establish an annual scholarship named according to your instructions with a gift of $5,000 or an endowed scholarship with a minimum gift of $30,000.
Community Outreach and Patient Care
Support of our community outreach initiatives and free clinics helps provide preventive oral health care and education to underserved populations who would otherwise be unable to access dental services. These clinics provide valuable experiences to our students as well through providing them with an opportunity to learn the skills necessary to care for a diverse population of patients.
