Arizona Dental Mission of Mercy
Over the past 12 years, the Arizona Mission of Mercy (AZMOM) has been a cornerstone in our community and a beacon of hope for countless individuals needing dental care. Thanks to the unwavering dedication of volunteers and the generous support of our community partners, we’ve been able to provide approximately $25 million worth of dental services to thousands of patients.
Reflecting on the tremendous impact AZMOM has had, we have decided to embark on a new journey to expand our reach beyond the confines of the Valley. That means our 2023 “big” AZMOM event was our last, but this end also paves the way for an exciting new chapter of community-driven dental care initiatives across Arizona.
This decision stems from our commitment to fulfilling the mission of the AzDA Cares Foundation: to prevent dental disease, provide dental education, and offer care to Arizona’s underserved populations. We believe that by reimagining AZMOM in a statewide context, we can better fulfill this mission and make a lasting difference in the lives of countless individuals.
AZMOM was a great experience. It showcased the big hearts of the dental community and gave us the chance to come together and work together to treat the unmet oral health needs in our community. Along the way, we learned a great deal about providing charitable dentistry.
We acknowledge the tremendous work of those who created this event, those who nurtured it over the years, and all the volunteers who worked together to give of themselves so that someone in need could smile. That spirit will be brought forward into multiple missions throughout the state as AzDA Cares moves to its next chapter.
We invite you to join us on this transformative journey. Your continued support, whether through volunteerism or financial contributions, is instrumental in helping us realize our vision of a healthier Arizona.
Together, we can meaningfully impact the oral health and well-being of our communities. Thank you for your ongoing support as we embark on this new chapter of service and compassion.
