The LDA Foundation is the charitable arm of the Louisiana Dental Association (LDA). Currently, it is comprised of the former LDA charities known as the Relief Fund, the CE Hebert Continuing Education Trust and the Assistance Fund.
What is the mission of the LDA Foundation?
The mission of the Foundation is to enhance the oral health of our State by providing funding for clinical research, education, scholarships and access to care programs, as well as providing financial assistance to dental professionals and their families who are in need.
Is my LDAF contribution tax deductible?
The LDA Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt corporation registered in the State of Louisiana. All contributions are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
Why does the LDAF need my contribution?
In the past three years, and four hurricanes, the charities that now comprise the Foundation have granted over $400,000 in emergency aid to Louisiana dentists who were devastated by these storms. As you might guess, this greatly reduced the funds available for future charitable efforts. The Foundation would ask every dentist in Louisiana to give back to your profession by contributing to the LDA Foundation. For LDA members, it is as easy as checking a box on your dues statement or filling out the online form at the top of this page.
The LDA Foundation is committed to helping support all aspects of our mission statement for the future. We will endeavor to develop new avenues for members to participate in charitable giving, including endowments
