General Endowment Fund Individual Donors

The Endowment Fund enables the Foundation to support many worthwhile programs.

In the past, earnings from the Endowment Fund have supported grants to support clinical research; to provide principal sponsorship of the AAP Workshop on Contemporary Science in Clinical Periodontics, which provided a forum for an evidence-based review of the most current periodontal research; and support for a video on academic careers in dentistry – a key area of concern in the periodontal community – that was developed by the American Dental Education Association (ADEA). The Fund is another opportunity for periodontists and companies to express their gratitude to a specialty that has been good to them. Following are individual donors to the Endowment Fund.
