2025 WDA Mission of Mercy

The 2025 WDA and WDA Foundation Mission of Mercy was held on July 25-26 at DC Everest Middle School in Schofield, WI.

The event turned out to be highly impactful and memorable to all those who were involved. 

Event key metrics:

• 755 individual patients served
• 852 overall patient visits
• 650 volunteers
• $885,000 given out in oral health care treatment at no charge to the patients
  

Special thanks goes out to Lani Becker, Event Coordinator, for her excellent organization and implementation of the event.

Over $250,000 was raised from donors and sponsors to cover this year’s direct expenses. Another $40,000 was directed by donors to cover the indirect costs related to the event. 

It was a highly successful fundraising effort!

The biggest winners in all this were the patients served at the event!  

It’s the Smiles Not the Miles That Make it a Mission!
