Alpha Omega: Envisioning the Next Generation of Leaders.

Abstract

The Alpha Omega International Dental Society represents around 5,000 active dentists and dental students across the United States, Canada, South America, Europe, Israel, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, with combined charitable contributions estimated at over $60 million. As the oldest international Jewish dental society in the world, Alpha Omega was founded in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1907, with a mission to combat the widespread anti-Semitism present in educational institutions and the broader dental community. From its inception, philanthropy has been central to its goals.
