Awards include nonprofit grants and recognitions of individuals offering community-based oral health and diabetes programs

WELLESLEY, Mass., July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sun Life U.S. and DentaQuest, part of Sun Life U.S., have announced this year's recipients of the Health Access Hero Awards. The honor recognizes nonprofit organizations and individual changemakers working to broaden access to health services and improve health outcomes for communities in need. The awards focus on Sun Life's and DentaQuest's key philanthropic priorities of oral health and diabetes care.

&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;&quot;Real progress in healthcare happens when people take action to remove the barriers that prevent individuals and families from getting the care they need,&quot; said David Healy, president, Sun Life U.S. &quot;The Health Access Heroes are doing exactly that. Their work is expanding access, addressing health inequities, and improving outcomes in communities that are too often left behind. We are honored to celebrate their impact and support their ongoing efforts.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Health Access Hero Awards operate through two pathways. Grants fuel innovative health and wellness programs at community organizations, while individual recognitions honor dedicated clinicians, activists, educators and program directors advancing health access in their regions. Each individual award recipient receives a $10,000 donation to the charity of their choice, extending their impact even further. To date, the program has distributed more than $4,000,000 in grants and donations, and has recognized more than 130 health champions nationwide. Between grants and individual recognitions, $585,000 will be awarded this year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meet the 2026 Health Access Heroes Award winners:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Individual winners&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dr. Leonardo Marchini, DDS, Professor and Chair, &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4737268-1&amp;h=2412822249&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fdentistry.uiowa.edu%2F&amp;a=University+of+Iowa+College+of+Dentistry+and+Dental+Clinics&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;University of Iowa College of Dentistry and Dental Clinics&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dr. Leonardo Marchini is a professor and chair of Preventive and Community Dentistry at the University of Iowa College of Dentistry and Dental Clinics.
