About Academy of Prosthodontics Foundation

The Academy of Prosthodontics Foundation concentrates its funding on supporting the professional field of prosthodontics, primarily through underwriting education and the Academy’s own activities. Most grants are directed to the Academy itself (including what appears to be duplicate or closely related entries) and to direct support for volunteer prosthodontic clinical work. The foundation appears inward-facing — sustaining professional development and charitable clinical services rather than broad public health or unrelated causes.

About Academy of Prosthodontics Foundation

The Academy of Prosthodontics Foundation’s largest recent grants go to the Academy of Prosthodontics itself, with two 2025 education awards of $49,788 and $47,550 to its San Diego, California location. That pattern points to a funder that uses much of its grantmaking to sustain the profession from within: education, scholarly presentation, and volunteer prosthodontic care. The foundation also backs direct clinical service through smaller awards tied to volunteer prosthodontic work, including support for practitioners and providers involved in care delivery. Across the recent grants listed, the foundation appears closely aligned with prosthodontics as a specialty rather than broad health philanthropy. Its program descriptions reinforce that picture: graduate student research grants encourage study in prosthodontics and related subjects, sponsorship grants support outreach initiatives and advanced education students presenting at the AP Annual Meeting, and outreach funding supports communities in need. The mix suggests a foundation funding the field’s pipeline, its professional gatherings, and its service role at the same time. Recent awards also show use of both education and volunteer-care purposes, indicating that the foundation funds professional advancement alongside direct service activities.

What Academy of Prosthodontics Foundation Funds

Education is a clear throughline. In 2025, the Academy of Prosthodontics Foundation gave $49,788 to the Academy of Prosthodontics in San Diego, California for education, and another $47,550 to Academy of Prosodontics in San Diego for the same purpose. Volunteer prosthodontic care is another recurring category. The foundation awarded $12,682 to Thomas D Taylor in Farmington, Connecticut for volunteer prosthodontic care, and a separate $3,759 to Matthew Kattaudujil in Loma Linda, California for the same type of work. It also supports professional development and scholarship. A $2,432 grant to David Felton in Morgantown, West Virginia was tagged for education, while a $3,000 award to Izchak Barzilay in Toronto combined volunteer prosthodontic care and education. Those purposes match the foundation’s stated interest in graduate research, outreach, and advanced education in prosthodontics.
