MDS Foundation Mission of Mercy
Save the Date!
The MDS Foundation is pleased to announce that we’re sponsoring a Mission of Mercy (MOM) no-cost dental clinic for adults:
Saturday, November 15, 2025
DCU Center, Worcester, Massachusetts
In fulfilling the Foundation’s mission of increasing access to care, the clinic will provide complimentary dental care to the uninsured, underinsured, and anyone who cannot access care. However, we need your help in two ways—by donating and volunteering.
Donate
To raise funds for this event, the Foundation has launched a fundraising initiative—Martin’s Mission Challenge—stemming from a generous offer by Dr. Raymond Martin, a past president of the MDS, to match all donations up to $20,000 received by September 1, 2025.
This challenge kicked off at the MDS House of Delegates, and the response and energy were so overwhelming that Dr. David Lustbader, a past president of the MDS and a Foundation Board member, generously offered to unlock an additional $10,000 match for funds raised once we meet the $20,000 goal.
These pledges would result in a total match of $30,000, potentially raising $60,000 by September 1 for the MOM.
If you have already made a donation, thank you for your generosity. If you haven’t had a chance to donate, help us get closer to unlocking the $30,000 match by donating today!
Volunteer
If you’re interested in volunteering, you and your staff can sign up as clinical volunteers. Additionally, you can also involve your friends, family, and support staff by asking them to volunteer for non-clinical roles. The goal is to serve 300 patients in one day, so all helping hands are welcome!
