The Dental Care Group provides free dental services to underserved communities Sat. Feb. 26th
For the past ten years, The Dental Care Group has been brightening smiles throughout South Florida with their annual event, Dentistry from Our Hearts, in both their Aventura and Pembroke Pines offices. This year’s event will be on Saturday, February 26th from 9am, to 4pm. In this heartwarming initiative, they provide free dental care to those who need it most – a gesture of ‘thank you’ for allowing them to be part of the community. This event is designed for the “needy and not the greedy”.
The Dental Care Group, through the leadership of Dr. Rick Mars, will provide free dental care to over 300 patients on February 26, and this year they will donate over $150,000 in services on that day for people who cannot afford dental care. These services include examinations, cleanings, fillings and extractions.
The entire team of the Dental Care Group volunteers their time on this annual day of giving. Dr. Mars, partner at The Dental Care Group, said, “Everyone on our team who participates in Dentistry From Our Hearts never forgets the feeling of giving and gratitude that they receive from the patients, and I am thankful to this team and sponsors for making it possible!”
The Dental Care Group has set a very high bar this year to donate free dental services which would bring the total to over $1.65 million in donated dental services overall. If you would like to be part of this effort, tax-deductible donations can be made through their charity, Feeding Friends. Any donation is appreciated but giving categories include: Healthy Smile sponsor ($500), Bright Smile sponsor ($250), Smiley Face Sponsor ($100) and Happy Face Sponsor ($20).
To donate , email Info@feeding-friends.org or call 305-935-2797 (Aventura) or 954-430-2300 (Pembroke)
