OkMOM Legacy Fund

HELP ENSURE ESSENTIAL DENTAL CARE CONTINUES IN 2025 & BEYOND!

The OkMOM Legacy Fund was established in July 2022 to ensure essential dental care is provided to patients in need during the 2025 OkMOM event and beyond. Please join us by making a pledge or onetime gift and help us secure the future of this life-changing event!

Since its inception in 2010, the Oklahoma Mission of Mercy (OkMOM) has been the most significant dental outreach event in our state. Thousands of dental professionals have come together over the years to provide essential dental care to Oklahomans. Volunteer dentists, specialists, hygienists, assistants, and students have treated 17,381 patients and provided more than $14.2 million in donated dental care. While the treatment is donated, there is still a substantial cost of $150,000 -$200,000 to operate the event each year.

The ODA Board of Trustees has decided to dissolve the partnership with the Delta Dental of Oklahoma Charitable Foundation after the 2024 event.

The Oklahoma Dental Association/Oklahoma Dental Foundation has received an incredibly generous gift from an anonymous ODA member and spouse who are committed to ensuring OkMOM continues well into the future. The $448,000 donation is being made as a dollar-for-dollar matching challenge, to be completed by June 30, 2023. This matching gift campaign will be the foundation for the new OkMOM Legacy Fund and will be the funding source for the 2025 OkMOM event and beyond.

One hundred percent of the ODA Board of Trustees have already made their pledge to the campaign, and we are asking you to please join them by making your monthly, quarterly, or annual pledge—or your one-time gift—to the OkMOM Legacy Fund. Every dollar you give will be doubled by the matching gift, helping us reach our initial goal of $896,000 and laying a solid foundation for the future of OkMOM.

Again, we ask you to join the legacy now by making your monthly, quarterly, annual, or one-time gift. Please help ensure essential dental care continues to be provided each year during the Oklahoma Mission of Mercy!

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR GENEROSITY! JOIN THE LEGACY & DONATE TODAY
