The foundation awards ten $5,000 scholarships annually. The scholarship program not only helps the individual students offset their educational expenses, but it also helps acquaint the future dentists with the tremendous need and opportunities for benevolent dentistry. “We ask just one thing in return for accepting these scholarships,” says John Gladden, President and CEO of Delta Dental. “We ask that they pay it forward, by always being willing to give a portion of their talent and time to help provide dental care to those who need it most throughout our state.” 2010-11 Scholarship Recipients Aaron Beaver – Checotah (Class of ‘11) Phoebe Brown - Oklahoma City (‘11) Tanner Cook - Lawton (‘12) Dirk Eckroat - Edmond (‘12) Trey Edwards - Ada (‘11) Christopher Faulconer - Lake Kiowa, TX (‘11) Dalia Georgy - Tulsa (‘11) Chelsea Holland - Oklahoma City (‘11) Dominika Kovacikova - Ruzomberok, Slovakia (‘13) Catherine Peck - Oklahoma City (‘11) From left to right: Delta Dental of Oklahoma CEO John Gladden, Dean of the OU College of Dentistry Dr. Stephen Young, Aaron Beaver, Dalia Georgy, Christopher Faulconer, Trey Edwards, Chelsea Holland, Dominika Kovacikova, Catherine Peck, Phoebe Brown, Dirk Eckroat, Tanner Cook, and Foundation Chairman Dr. Michael McLeod. 2009-10 Scholarship Recipients Callie Bouziden of Claremore (‘10) Blaire Bowers of Edmond (‘10) Layla Chafi of Edmond (‘11) Christopher Corbin of Duncan (‘10) Drew Hendrix of Kingfisher (‘12) Heather Koch of Moore (‘10) Ande Loveless of Chickasha (‘12) Molly Marshall of Tulsa (‘10) Marilina Resasco of Norman (‘10) Chris Richards of Edmond (‘10) The 2009-10 scholarship recipients are pictured below with John Gladden, President/CEO Delta Dental.
