Dentists Bellevue Wa Contribute to Native Americn Dentistry Scholarships

Seattle and Bellevue Area Dentists attended a “Partners in Diversity” dinner and auction May 19, 2012, at the University of Washington School of Dentistry. In addition to dentists in attendance, many dental students and recent dentistry graduates of various ethnic backgrounds were in attendance. The purpose of this function was to generate money for scholarships awarded to School of Dentistry students of various ethnic backgrounds. The four key note speakers were Native-American dentistry graduates. New role models are providing hope for communities where minorities have been under represented. Partners in Diversity supports the enhancement of a diverse student body at the University of Washington Dentistry School. This is being accomplished by private and professional sector support for an endowed scholarship fund that removes the financial barriers for historically under-represented groups
