Welcome to the NCDS Foundation Tribute Garden—A Living Legacy of Care and Compassion

At the heart of the NC Dental Society Foundation lies a shared commitment: ensuring every North Carolina resident has access to high-quality, compassionate oral health care. We know that dentists across our state embody this commitment every day—through their service, their leadership, and their dedication to expanding care for those who need it most.

The Tribute Garden offers a meaningful opportunity to celebrate a colleague, mentor, or friend of dentistry. Each dedication becomes a lasting symbol of gratitude while helping expand access to essential dental care for communities across North Carolina.

Celebrate the people and moments that shape North Carolina’s dental community. Your tribute helps stories of compassion, mentorship, and leadership continue to bloom through the Foundation’s mission.

Each tribute made to the garden represents a story—of compassion, mentorship, leadership, or friendship—that continues to bloom through the Foundation's mission.

Your gift directly supports:
  • Free dental clinics providing care for uninsured and underserved North Carolinians

  • Scholarships and workforce development programs that strengthen the dental profession

  • Community grants that bring oral health access to those who need it most

Every contribution honors someone special—and plants the seeds for a healthier North Carolina.

Ways to Give

  • Honor a colleague, mentor, or friend of dentistry to celebrate their commitment to dentistry and service.
  • Donate to have a plaque, water feature or other element named after you while also ensuring every North Carolinian can access quality oral health care.
