The Delta Dental of Virginia Foundation is making a difference in the lives of those in need throughout Virginia. With 3.8 million Virginians lacking dental insurance, our foundation is committed to improving the oral health of all Virginians. That's why we have provided more than $3.6 million since 2012 to help expand the dental safety net. 

We couldn't do it without the non-profit organizations across Virginia that are dedicated to serving the under- or uninsured through oral health research, education and care. We are thankful to have been able to provide grants to 51 Virginia organizations since the foundation's inception, including the most recent donations of $231,500 to organizations for use in 2017. 

These new grants focus on key areas of need throughout Virginia and will benefit the state's youth, the uninsured and medically underserved, as well as dental professionals in training. 
We're excited to continue to work with organizations in our community to create healthy smiles across Virginia.  Find out more about the Delta Dental of Virginia Foundation and get a list of this year's grant recipients .  Read more about what these organizations are doing with their grants on our blog .
