School of Dental Medicine

With a gift to Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine, you join generations of alumni, faculty and community partners whose generosity enables us to provide a world-class education with hands-on experiences.

Your gift can support:

• State-of-the-art facilities and tools, including our dental simulator labs, practice management software and digital X-ray equipment;
• student scholarships, allowing CWRU to competitively recruit a skilled and diverse class;
• a world-class faculty to shape the next generation of dental professionals; and
• our community engagement programs, including our dental clinic, which provides quality care to Greater Cleveland while offering hands-on experience to students.

Funding opportunities

Annual giving

Beyond supporting the operating budget, a gift to the Annual Fund allows the School of Dental Medicine to stay on the cutting edge by consistently upgrading teaching tools, including the dental simulator labs, practice management software and digital X-ray equipment.

Partners in Progress

The Partners In Progress (PIP) program was established in 1999 as a way for alumni to help advance the School of Dental Medicine through multi-year Annual Fund commitments. Over the past two decades, the well-recognized "PIP program" has become a vital source of sustained support.
