What is Mission of Mercy?

The Mission of Mercy (MOM) is a temporary dental clinic that is set up in a selected Wisconsin community for two days of oral health care treatment. The event takes place every other year during the summer and then moves to a new Wisconsin location, targeting areas where the need for dental care is the greatest and the average income tends to be low.

Since 2009, more than 16,000 Wisconsin children and adults have now received in excess of $11 million in donated care at WDA and WDA Foundation Mission of Mercy events since 2009.
