2008-2009 Fundraising Campaign Report
The 2008-2009 Fundraising Campaign has begun! The goal this year will be to raise $900,000!
This year the Friends of the Foundation are divided into three teams, named after the coaches of the Chicago Blackhawks. Each member from the first team to raise $200,000 receives half off their Annual Session registration fee. In addition, new this year, each member of the first team to complete all of their fundraising calls receives one night's hotel reimbursement for Annual Session. Let the games begin!
If you are willing to participate or have questions or comments about the AAE Foundation Fundraising Campaign, please notify Suzanne Riger, development coordinator, at sriger@aae.org.
| Team Hardy - $6,000 |
Team Savard - $3,000 |

2007-2008 Fundraising Campaign Report
The Board of Trustees along with the Friends of the Foundation reached and exceeded their goal of raising $864,000. A total of $1,020,670 was raised in the 2007-2008 Campaign!
This year’s campaign statistics include:
- $611,705 promised by active AAE members;
- $215,000 pledged by current students;
- $120,000 contributed by corporate partners; and
- $48,965 raised through the Alliance raffle and live and silent product auctions.
It is wonderful to exceed goals and it is especially good to know that the Foundation has replaced the $1 million that will be spent this year for grants. Strong scientific and academic initiatives create a healthy specialty and a productive practice environment for all.

Campaign Reflections
On Giving…
André K. Mickel , D.D.S., M.S.D.
Increased to Diamond Level
“After all that the AAE Foundation and AAE have done for educators and our entire specialty, how can I just stand by and not give even more to help ensure the future of endodontics? I want to give my time, talent and treasure to make sure that we remain strong and steadfast in a turbulent world!”
On Receiving…
Hong Li, D.D.S., M.Sc., Ph.D.
Graduate resident at Oregon Health & Science University
“It is such a distinctive honor to be the recipient of an AAE Foundation research grant. The field of virology in endodontics is still mostly blank, and I believe our project will answer some of the perplexing questions. The Foundation has sponsored a great deal of outstanding research projects. I am committed to live up to the highest expectation of the AAE and fulfill the requirements of the Foundation.”
On Volunteering…
Mark A. Camp, D.D.S., M.S.
2007-2008 Volunteer
“I believe that by volunteering I can educate others about the importance of the Foundation so that we can control our destiny rather than have other specialties or manufacturers do so.”
