H.O. Blackwood, III, DDS Memorial Endowed Scholarship in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Education
Remembering the legacy of Dr. Blackwood while enhancing oral surgery education in northwest Louisiana
Several years ago, a fund was started in honor of Dr. Blackwood to support LSU Health Shreveport’s Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department. There is an opportunity to enhance this fund by applying for matching funds from the Louisiana Board of Regents to create an endowed scholarship. This scholarship would lessen the expense of a dental student enrolling in the department’s oral surgery education program.

Dr. H.O. Blackwood, a beloved and respected orthodontist, provided instrumental support to LSUHS’s Oral Surgery Department for over 30 years. He was committed to strengthening education, training, and standards of practice in our region and beyond. Please consider a gift today supporting this endowed scholarship, which will continue Dr. Blackwood’s legacy of service and excellence.
