Second- and third-year dental students receive scholarships through this fund.

The Dental Medicine Class of 1964 Endowed Scholarship Fund was established by Dr. Charles A. Smith II to provide annual scholarships to students of the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine.

The fund provides assistance to a second- or third-year dental student, with preference given to veterans.

The School of Dental Medicine is a pioneer in the field—a research titan, and a shining example of the best of dental education, community engagement and global leadership. Maintaining our lead is expensive. Increasing our lead requires a $43 million investment, more visionary donors and additional philanthropic support. But the payoff is immense: With your help, our world-class research, education, clinical facilities and experiences will better prepare our students, redefine and strengthen dental medicine, and improve the health of countless millions of people.
