Making a Donation
The great need for children's dental care is not an exaggeration. It's proven by some harrowing statistics. Sixty-five percent of low-income children in Utah suffer from untreated dental decay. More than 30 percent of the children in Idaho lack dental care insurance. And when oral disorders go untreated, they can lead to kidney, liver and cardiovascular disease, as well as complications associated with diabetes.
But you have the power to help improve children's health. Your donation to the Regence Caring Foundation can provide restoration and prevention. All of the profits from our fundraising events and other donations are used to provide free dental care services to children in need. Regence is responsible for all of our general administrative expenses, so your contribution can go directly to the children in our region.
We greatly appreciate the support of our 2009 donors.
To become a donor, submit your donation online or contact us.
