As we come to the close of another year, I want to extend my heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported the CDHA Foundation and our service programs.
Your generosity showed up in so many meaningful ways—through participation in our raffle for a seven-day Mexico getaway, attendance at our grant-writing continuing education course, direct donations, and IRA charitable rollovers. Each contribution, in every form, helps strengthen our ability to serve and expand oral health initiatives across California.
I am deeply grateful to our CDHA members, corporate sponsors, and local CDHA components whose support makes this work possible. Your commitment directly fuels the Foundation’s mission and the programs that benefit our profession and the communities we serve.
As Foundation Chair, I am excited about the momentum we are building and look forward to continued growth in our program services as we move into 2026.
And as a longtime CDHA member, I also want to take a moment to remind everyone how vital CDHA membership is. Supporting CDHA through membership is one of the most impactful ways to invest in the future of dental hygiene in California.
Thank you for believing in this work, in our profession, and in the power of collective support.
Michael Long
