Dr. Dennis Hiller has alway kept a watchful eye on the achievements of his patients. He has also committed himself to consistent contributions within the New Hampshire and Vermont communities he serves. The SmileMaker Endowment Fund, now in its 14th year, has become a local tradition and provides an opportunity to one special individual who has demonstrated a commitment to civic service and goodwill towards others.

The Smilemaker Endowment Fund was established by Dr. Hiller in 1997 to support and recognize a young individual who, through community service, “put a smile on someone’s face”.  The endowment began as a $500 award but has grown in scope significantly since then. Now a $1,000 endowment, this award has been used as a scholarship for college, vocational school, or may be directed to any charity the recipient chooses.  It is administered by the Dollars for Scholars organization, another of Dr. Hiller’s community passions and the recipient receives all the benefits this organization provides as well.
The application deadline for the 2011 SmileMaker Endowment was April 15th. Stay tuned for press releases and blogs about this year’s winner and a checkup on previous years winners.
