2010 Grants
We have once again received excellent grant requests from many deserving organizations. We will immediately begin the review process and look to inform all grant applicants of our 2010 decisions by the Fall of this year. We encourage other worthy candidates to look for our grant process announcement in the first quarter of 2011.
We invite you to learn more about past DTAF grant recipients, and the good work they have accomplished.
2009 Grant Recipients
"
I want all of you to know how much I have been able to accomplish as a consequence of your funding of my first project,
the thrust of which was to train primary care medical providers to include primary caries prevention
(including an oral exam, a risk assessment, application of fluoride varnish per ADA recommendations)
in the well-child medical examination.
Since that time I have received funding or pledges from two of Minnesota's local health plans,
Delta Dental and the National Children's Oral Health Foundation.
As a consequence, thousands of children have received dental care and to date over 130 clinics have been contacted to
participate in my programs.
In conclusion, I wish to reiterate that the initial financial support of my project was the catalyst that got these activities in motion."
