Support Dental Hygiene Students' Ceremonies & Boards Exam

As dental hygiene students, we embark on a journey that’s much more than mastering technical skills and theoretical knowledge. We’re preparing to care for others' health, build trust, and advocate for better dental care practices in our communities. Our program isn’t just about learning; it’s about becoming part of a profession that has the power to transform lives. And as we approach the culmination of our studies, three important milestones await us: White Coat & Ribbon Pinning Ceremony, our Graduation Ceremony, and taking our NBDHE (National Board Dental Hygiene Examination).

These ceremonies are not just symbolic events—they mark the official recognition of our hard work, dedication, and the completion of a rigorous program. The White Coat and Ribbon Pinning Ceremony, in particular, is a special moment where we receive the professional symbol of our new role in dental hygiene, a rite of passage that signifies our commitment to excellence in patient care. The Graduation Ceremony is the final celebration of our academic and personal achievements, a time to honor all the support we’ve received along the way, and to prepare for the next step in our careers. Preparing for our boards exam will also be something special as we are close to the finish line of receiving our licenses as official Registered Dental Hygienist.

However, such meaningful events come with significant costs—costs that our program's budget alone cannot fully cover. From the purchase of white coats and pins to the venue for the ceremony and the reception for families, and paying for our exams; these expenses quickly add up. Some students aren't able to work because of our school schedules and this is where we need your help. Our goal is to raise funds to ensure that every student can participate in these important events without financial barriers.

By supporting our fundraising efforts, you are not only helping us celebrate this milestone, but you’re also investing in the future of healthcare. These ceremonies provide a moment of pride for our families, for our communities, and for us as students who have worked tirelessly to achieve our dreams. Your donation will directly impact our ability to celebrate these milestones in a meaningful way.

Thank you for your consideration, and for helping us make this dream a reality. Your support ensures that we don’t just walk across the stage; we walk with the recognition, respect, and confidence that come with the title of a dental hygiene professional.

Sincerely,

Your future RDH's
