PROUDLY SPONSORED BY
Since 1980, the New York State Dental Foundation, a 501(c)3 charity, has worked alongside our parent organization, the New York State Dental Association (NYSDA), to improve the oral health of all New Yorkers and support outreach to communities in need. Our work proudly expresses the profession's commitment to social responsibility and to being the leading oral health champion of the vulnerable and undeserved. We rely solely on the support of NYSDA member dentists, community members, grant funding, and corporate partners to help fund our programs and initiatives.
Last year, donations made on #GivingToothday fueled our mission to improve oral health care for all New Yorkers through a variety of programs in 2024. Your support enabled us to:
- Distribute thousands of oral hygiene kits to schools, domestic violence shelters, and refugee organizations
- Connect over 140 veteran cases to pro bono dental care through Salute Vets with a Smile
- Screen more than 100 athletes at the "Special Smiles" booth at the Special Olympics State Games
- Present 9 dental hygiene graduates with the $500 Stevenson Award
- Support water fluoridation efforts in Wilton
- Distribute crucial funding to 3 children's dental programs at NYC hospitals
- Contribute $5,000 to Mohawk Valley Gives to leverage matching support for the new MVCC dental hygiene program
- Underwrite 2 major oral cancer screening and awareness events
- Bring back the Capital Region Community Dental Event for a second year
- Contract with 4 Community Dental Health Coordinators to work directly with patients in four regions of NYS
Every dollar donated to the #GivingToothday campaign on December 3, 2024 will help bolster these initiatives and provide crucial funding to propel New York State to the forefront of innovative and compassionate oral health care for the vulnerable and underserved.
