about us

The KARMA. foundation

You get what you give’. Perhaps the most easy explanation of how Karma defines our lives. The fact that we as dental professionals are fortunate to live our lives the way we do and that we are blessed with the joy in our work is unfortunately not the reality for everybody.

We received so much from the people in our dental community already, we are simply obliged to also give something back.

That’s why we started the KARMA. Foundation (Stichting KARMA. Dentistry).

promote and improve

Our goals

The goal of our non-profit foundation is to promote and improve oral care for the underprivileged in the Netherlands. We contribute to this by:

• Mobilizing dental care professionals, such as dentists, dental hygienists and dental assistants, to voluntarily contribute to oral care for the homeless.
• Involving the dental industry and the field in our mission, both in the form of labor and financial support.
• Collaborating with relevant partners, such as Stichting Urgente Noden (SUN) and funding the project De Sociale Tandarts, to realize structural oral care solutions.
