Napa Dentist Donates Proceeds to UCSF

Napa orthodontist R. William Moore, a graduate of the UCSF School of Dentistry, will donate a day's proceeds from his dental practice to help support UCSF School of Dentistry educational programs.

Moore, a 1973 graduate of the UCSF School of Dentistry and a 1976 graduate of the UCSF orthodontics program, will donate a minimum of $1,500 earned on July 27 to the school's Parnassus Club, which supports School of Dentistry programs, equipment and supplies not covered by the regular budget.

Moore is one of about 100 UCSF School of Dentistry alumni who will be donating one day's earnings to the school as part of the Parnassus Club's Dental Donation Campaign. Organizers of the campaign, which will take place throughout 1999, hope to raise at least $150,000 -- which would double the club's annual intake -- through the effort.

In the past, Parnassus Club donations have been used to help support volunteer teachers, a dental clinic for homeless people, and equipment for student teaching. Faculty development, community outreach activities and newer technology also have been financed through the Parnassus Club.
