🎉Introducing our 2025 Smiles for Kids grantees!🎉
We have officially surpassed $1 million awarded through the Smiles for Kids program since the program's inception in 2011! This year, The Delta Dental Foundation awarded $157,000+ in oral health grants to 39 North Carolina nonprofits that will support oral health services or education for 40,000+ children that are underserved in our state. We are so excited to partner with these organizations that work hard every day to improve oral health in their local communities, because everyone deserves a healthy smile!
