How Shipley’s Dental Care Supports the Millersville, MD Community
At Shipley’s Dental Care, being part of the Millersville community means more than just providing exceptional dental care—it means showing up, listening, and giving back. Since opening our doors, we’ve proudly served generations of local families, building relationships that extend far beyond the dental chair.
If you know of a local initiative or organization that could use a helping hand, we’d love to hear from you. Let’s keep our community healthy, connected, and smiling—together.
Stanton Center
Offering access to health services for those with little or no insurance.
The Stanton Community Center hosts the Annapolis, Maryland Outreach Center Dental Clinic, and Dr. Clayton McCarl has proudly volunteered at this clinic for more than a decade. The program is operated by the Anne Arundel Medical Center. It provides free dental care through a network of local dentists, dental hygienists, and dentistry professions from Annapolis, Millersville, and surrounding communities.
Annapolis Wellness House
Annapolis
Wellness House
A non-profit organization that supports free programs and services for the survivors of cancer.
We have proudly backed this organization for many years, offering a variety of services, educational seminars, and financial support. Dr. Clayton McCarl has conducted seminars to help those impacted by cancer care for their smiles before, during, and after cancer treatments. We have also sponsored the Wellness House Sporting Clays Classic and other programs and events hosted by this organization.
The Travis Manion Foundation
“If not me, then who?”
1st Lt. Travis Manion of the United States Marines Corps described the sense of duty he, his family, and his fellow service members felt simply by stating, “If not me, then who?” This dedication to community is honored each year in the Travis Manion Foundation 5k race in Annapolis, which benefits veterans and families of services members. Doctor Jay McCarl was happy to participate in this event with Bill Contarino in September of 2019.
SPAN Turkey Trot
Each year we contribute to the SPAN Turkey Trot. This annual event helps to provide essential items and support for local families in need, including food, help with utilizes, infant supplies, and medical treatments.
BWMC Heartbeat for Health
BWMC Heartbeat for Health is an event where complimentary healthcare services and health education are provided for community members. We’ve participated for several years, offering dental treatments and oral healthcare education and hygiene products for patients.
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA)
Giving back to children who need their advocacy.
We are proud to support CASA of Anne Arundel County. We have contributed certificates for services as awards for their annual CASAblanca Gala fundraiser, and we often attend the event.
