Baltimore, MD (September 13, 2024) – Today, Chase Brexton Health Care proudly announced a grant of $100,000 from the Delta Dental Community Care Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Delta Dental of California.
With the grant, Chase Brexton will expand access to comprehensive oral health care for low-income individuals and families in Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Anne Arundel County, and Howard County. This funding, made possible through the Access to Care Grants Program, is dedicated to securing and increasing access to quality, affordable oral health care across the 15 states and Washington, D.C. where Delta Dental of California operates.
Through this strategic grant, Chase Brexton can continue to provide indispensable services to the most vulnerable in the communities it serves and positively influence the lives of more individuals.
“We’ve seen ongoing and high demand for our dental services across the communities we serve,” said Dr. Brooks Woodward DDS, Dental Director for Chase Brexton. “The Community Care Foundation’s support ensures that we will be able to continue to deliver these services and increase access to them for even more patients.”
Since 2011, the Community Care Foundation has contributed more than $150 million to local community partners. The goal of these partnerships is to increase access to care, address health disparities, drive health equity and promote innovation in the oral health field.
