Chartered in 1950 by the UNC School of Dentistry's founders, the Dental Foundation of North Carolina is the School's non-profit foundation.

During its 55 year history, the Foundation has raised funds from alumni, friends, corporations and foundations to provide exclusive support for the students, faculty, programs and facilities of the UNC School of Dentistry.

Today, the Foundation holds assets of nearly $28 million that are overseen by its Board of Directors, most of whom are UNC School of Dentistry alumni. Annually, the Foundation provides the School more than $1 million in support through scholarships, fellowships, professorships and program support.
