Active Campaigns
Campaigns supporting Â鶹´«Ã½ have a strong history of success and growth, as donors provide impactful and lasting contributions that will extend far into the future.
Accelerating Excellence: The Campaign for Â鶹´«Ã½ concluded in 2022, exceeding its fundraising goal by more than $100 million. Looking forward, we are calling on the extraordinary support from Â鶹´«Ã½ donors, who include University trustees, alumni, parents, faculty, staff, foundations and corporations, to support key causes on campus, including the following:
Help CADE Grow
Support CADE: Learn how growth is driving the need for a building expansion.
A $27-million building-expansion campaign for Dreiling-Marshall Hall, home to the Â鶹´«Ã½ Center for Advanced Dental Education (CADE), will fund a 24,000-square-foot addition to the facility, allowing its clinics and academic programs to meet growing demands.
Designed to improve CADE’s patient, student, resident and faculty experience, the expansion calls for:
- Three active-learning classrooms
- 3,800 square feet of orthodontics expansion
- 14 periodontics operatories/surgery rooms
- 10 pediatric dentistry operatories
- Seven endodontics operatories/surgery rooms
- Faculty and resident office suites
The existing building entry will be transformed with new check-in and waiting areas. Additional square footage over three stories will expand dedicated space for the periodontics, endodontic and pediatric dentistry clinics, with increased privacy, better patient experiences and operational efficiencies.
This program will not only elevate our international standing but also foster valuable collaborations with orthodontic programs across the world, creating a richer and more diverse academic community."
— CADE Orthodontic Program Director Ki Beom Kim, D.D.S., Ph.D.
