Grants to charities were limited to a maximum of $10,000. As of Jan. 1, 2009, the Grants and Donations Committee was dissolved by action of the Board of Directors. The reason was that such committee work was seen to duplicate the intent for which the Chicago dental Society foundation was established in late 2007. Therefore, the Chicago Dental Society will no longer be accepting applications for grants and donations. The Chicago Dental Society Foundation will be announcing its application procedures and guidelines. Charitable organizations and educational groups are encouraged to monitor the CDS Web site or visit www.chicagodentalsocietyfoundation.org for information asthe CDS Foundation proceeds in establishing grant application criteria and submission requirements.
