The Campaign for the 4Cs Dental Hygiene Program

We have launched a $2.5 million campaign to fund essential capital improvements in our dental hygiene clinic – renovations that will reflect state-of-the-art clinical education and practice and contemporary facility design.

Your support of The Campaign for the 4Cs Dental Hygiene Program will keep the dream alive for our students.  And – at a time when basic necessities are out of reach for so many – your gift will bring vital dental hygiene services to children and families across the Cape.

Cape Cod Community College Receives Largest Private Gift in its History


Mrs. Maureen Wilkens, local philanthropist and long-time supporter of Cape Cod Community College, has pledged $1.25M to support the renovation of the College’s Dental Hygiene clinic and classrooms. The $1.25M gift represents half of the funds necessary to complete the $2.5M renovation and is the largest single gift in the College’s 50 year history.

Mrs. Wilkens will serve as Honorary Co-Chair of the campaign, and presented the gift as a challenge match to the Community. Dorothy Savarese, President and CEO of the Cape Cod Five Cents Savings Bank announced that the bank’s charitable foundation would respond with the first challenge match grant of $250,000.

Mrs. Wilkens is especially interested in garnering the support of the Cape Cod dental community.  Both Dr. Robert Faiella, a dentist practicing in Osterville and President-Elect of the American Dental Association, and Dr. Neil Ringler, a dentist practicing in West Barnstable and past College Trustee will serve as Honorary Co-Chairs alongside Mrs. Wilkens to encourage their dental colleague’s involvement.
