Support the Future of Dental Hygiene: Help Fund a Scholarship for Detroit Mercy Students

The Detroit Mercy Dental Hygiene Program is proud to launch a fundraising campaign to provide vital financial support to dental hygiene students with demonstrated financial need. Started by a dedicated faculty member, this scholarship will grow through the generosity of the Dental Hygiene community, alumni, family, and friends.

Why This Scholarship Matters: Education costs can be a barrier for talented and passionate students pursuing their dreams in dental hygiene. By contributing to this campaign, you’ll help create opportunities for students of all backgrounds—regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, or ability—to receive the financial assistance they need to excel in their studies and careers.

Our Goal: We aim to raise $5,000 to grow this scholarship to support deserving Detroit Mercy Dental Hygiene students. With your help, we can ensure that students have the resources to pursue their education and contribute to the field of dental hygiene.

Your Impact: By donating, you’ll be helping to:

  • Relieve the financial burden on students in need.
  • Encourage diversity and inclusion in the dental hygiene profession.
  • Create a lasting culture of support for Detroit Mercy students.

This campaign is just the beginning. By raising awareness and fostering a spirit of giving, we hope that alumni, family, and friends will continue to support this scholarship for years to come. Together, we can create a brighter future for Detroit Mercy Dental Hygiene students.

Join us today in making a difference—one gift at a time!

You can make a one time gift or choose to make a larger gift over time by choosing the recurring gift option.

Donations by check can be made out to University of Detroit Mercy with Dental Hygiene Scholarship in the memo line and sent to:

University Advancement, University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry, 2700 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., Detroit, MI 48208

To thank donors who make a gift of $250 or more, we are sending you an insulated mug with a Detroit Mercy Dental logo.

MATCH AVAILABLE: We have a generous donor, Richard M. Golden DDS '71, who will match up to $3,500 to the first gifts to either of the two dental funds: the Family Pantry and the Dental Hygiene Scholarship.
