OHSU Give Day 2023 is over, but you can still support OHSU
School of Dentistry


“Every single day I wake up, I’m happy to be at OHSU. And every single day I try and strive to learn something new.”

– Aria Javaheri, OHSU School of Dentistry Class of 2023 

Support tomorrow’s health care leaders

Students at OHSU are adapting to new realities—and facing significant financial hardships. 

Scholarships are the best tools available to help ensure that an OHSU School of Dentistry education is within reach for every student, regardless of their financial situation.

Why scholarships matter

Scholarships and direct student support are made possible through your generous help. Your donations will help OHSU:

  • Attract and retain the best and brightest students
  • Reduce the burden of student loans
  • Meet Oregon’s changing needs

Please make your gift today--this is your LAST CHANCE to have your gift matched** 1:2 for student scholarships and support funds!

** Funds qualifying for the 1:2 match include current-use and endowed scholarship and student support funds.

You can support the Dean Jack Clinton DS1 Conference on Professionalism Fund Challenge by making a gift here.

Thank You!
