Southern California Wildfire Relief Fund
Join CDA and the CDA Foundation in providing wildfire relief to those affected by the devastating fires in Southern California.
The Foundation has opened the Southern California Wildfire Relief Fund to help our colleagues and community members displaced by this disaster. The fund is now accepting monetary donations from anyone who wishes to support this effort, and one hundred percent of your tax-deductible donation will go toward those in need.
How to donate:
- Specify the amount of your donation.
- Select the frequency of your donation (one-time).
- Choose “Southern California Wildfire Relief Fund” from the drop-down menu.
- Fill in the remaining fields and select “continue” to proceed with payment. (Volume-related delays are impacting page load times. If you experience a delay, try refreshing the page. Once you submit payment, do not close the window until you see a payment confirmation message which will include a link to your payment receipt. An email receipt will be sent within two business days.)
Impacted individual California dentists, dental staff and dental society staff can review application criteria and apply online for funds.
