About Oral Health International Foundation
Oral Health International Foundation’s recent grantmaking is anchored by small, direct awards for dental care projects and student support, with a long-running mix of community clinics, oral health access, and scholarships. Across its programs, the foundation funds nonprofit dental work, hygiene kits for people experiencing homelessness, and scholarship support for dental students and trainees. The grant list shows recurring support for dental program work in multiple places, including a $12,000 award to Angkor Hospital for Children for a dental program and repeated $10,000 student scholarship grants to Pierre Fauchard Academy (Canada) in Montreal. Smaller awards are common too, suggesting a funding style that favors practical project costs rather than large capital commitments. Its stated programs emphasize underserved populations, clinical services, dental instruments, disposable supplies, and basic oral hygiene items. The foundation also supports international work alongside U.S. projects, and it has continued to fund both service delivery and dental education through the latest 990 year on file.
What Oral Health International Foundation Funds
A central theme is access to care for underserved communities. In 2023, the foundation gave $7,000 to Hope Dental Clinic in St. Paul, Minnesota for a dental program, and it also funded Moab Free Health Clinic in Moab, Utah for the same purpose. Another clear thread is oral health projects outside the United States: Mundo a Sorrir Associacao De Medicos Dentistas Soliarias Portugueses in Porto received $7,000 for a dental program, while Health Mission Outreach in Toronto received $7,000 for a dental program. Student support is also part of the mix. Pierre Fauchard Academy (Australia) in Mount Claremount, Western Australia received $9,000 for student scholarship support, showing that the foundation’s education funding reaches beyond one country and one cohort.
How Oral Health International Foundation Gives
The typical grant size is small: the 25th percentile is $1,000, the median is $1,000, and the 75th percentile is $5,000. That distribution points to a pattern of modest project grants, even though some awards are larger. The foundation appears to fund repeatedly across years, including multi-year scholarship support to Pierre Fauchard Academy in Montreal and Mount Claremount. It also funds individuals and uses direct program support rather than PRIs. Several active programs accept unsolicited requests, including the Annual Grants Program, Share A Smile Grants Program, General Grants Program, and Oral Health International Foundation Grants.
