The Michigan Dental Association (MDA) Foundation is pleased to announce the receipt of a generous $70,000 grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation. This grant will provide vital support for the upcoming Mission of Mercy event in Flint, Michigan, scheduled for June 14-16, 2024.
The Mission of Mercy is a collaborative effort providing free dental care to all comers, regardless of income or residency status. With the support of the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, the MDA Foundation expects its hundreds of volunteers to provide an estimated $1.8 million in crucial dental services to as many as 2,000 people from around the state.
“The Michigan Dental Association Foundation is ecstatic to receive this generous $70,000 grant from the Mott Foundation,” said MDA Foundation President Dr. Daniel Peters. “The entire Flint community has been wonderful to work with and we are so looking forward to a fantastic Mission of Mercy event. Along with our community partners, we’ll make tangible improvements to oral health while simultaneously highlighting access-to-care issues that so many people in our state face.”
