We are deeply saddened by the recent hurricanes, that have impacted so many of our members and communities in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. We recognize the challenges that natural disasters can bring, affecting both personal lives and businesses, and we want to extend our heartfelt support to all those affected.

As part of our commitment to helping our members and the dental laboratory community recover, NADL has established the NADL Disaster Relief Fund, which provides financial assistance to dental laboratories impacted by natural disasters. If you or your business has been affected, please visit the NADL Disaster Relief Fund page for more information on how to apply. Those interested in supporting or helping can also donate to the fund at this page.
