Durham Tech Foundation

❓Did you know Durham Tech is home to North Carolina's only CODA-accredited Restorative Dental Technology program? 🦷 That makes the College a statewide leader in preparing dental laboratory professionals.

Now, thanks to a grant from the North Carolina Dental Society Foundation, we'll be able to expand continuing education opportunities for dental professionals and pre-dental students across North Carolina. The grant will support the development of new courses in areas like orthodontics, implant restoration, digital workflows, and dental anatomy, helping dental professionals build new skills throughout their careers.

🌟Board Member Spotlight: Bill Stokes🌟

After retiring from a career in financial services with Morgan Stanley, Bill Stokes found a meaningful way to continue giving back through service on the Durham Tech Foundation Board. Encouraged by fellow board members and longtime community leaders Walter Newton, Kay Gresham, and his wife, Lucy Stokes, Bill joined the Board with a desire to support Durham Tech’s mission and students. He has especially enjoyed serving on the Foundation’s Finance Committee, where he has helped guide investment policy development and strengthen the Foundation’s stewardship practices.

For Bill, one of the most powerful reminders of Durham Tech’s impact came during this year’s Scholarship Breakfast:

“It has been deeply fulfilling to be involved with an organization like Durham Tech and its Foundation and to witness firsthand the impact Durham Tech has on our community. Our recent scholarship breakfast especially underscored the tremendous opportunities the college provides and the profound difference it makes in the lives of so many students in Durham.”

Thank you, Bill, for your leadership, expertise, and commitment to Durham Tech students. 💚
