Who We Are

The Robert T. Freeman Dental Society seeks your support for the “Deamonte Driver Dental Project” of Prince George’s County Maryland and metropolitan Washington, DC. Our organization, founded in 1900, is the oldest component chapter of the National Dental Association. The crusade we are leading addresses the life threatening problem of lack of dental care for children.

This project is a grassroots endeavor which has already obtained partial funding from the State of Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and has also received a groundswell of support from community partners including Howard University College of Dentistry, University of Maryland College Park, Morgan State University, local practicing dentists, many civic organizations and church groups. We currently seek additional funding to operate the project for the first three years, laying the groundwork required to create a sustainable program for our children and a model for our nation.
