The Delta Dental Community Care Foundation has awarded a $225,000 grant to the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry.
The funds will support the school's patient emergency fund and dental care services for veterans in the San Francisco Bay Area. Also, the school will use the grant to develop a new mobile education program that will train dental hygienists to better serve low-income communities in the Central Valley, according to the University of the Pacific.
