Help to make this another successful year for the Institute’s New for 2009, ADHA’s President’s Reception and the IOH Extravaganza will be combined to make one large benefit celebration. On Saturday, June 20, 2009, the Institute will host its 11th Annual Silent Auction in Washington, D.C. during the ADHA Institute for Oral Health Benefit/President’s Reception. During the premier fundraising event for the foundation, time-share vacations, works of art, jewelry, food and wine baskets, regional and collectible gifts and handmade crafts will be auctioned. We ask that you solicit donations from your constituent and component organizations, as well as dedicated dental hygienists throughout your state. It is recommended that all auction items retail over $100. Donors will receive a tax-deductible credit for their gift. Auction items will be displayed for preview on the Exhibit Show Floor and in the Silent Auction program with the donor and/or solicitors’ names. If you, or a donor, have any questions regarding auction solicitations or the auction process, please feel free to contact Star Abernathy at (312) 440-8944 or e-mail at institute@adha.net. Your help in this matter is important, as it is only through your generosity that auction items are collected.
Dental Hygienists are “Toothfairys” at Work One grant recipient was the Mobile Dental Clinic for Wilkes Public Health in North Wilkesboro, N.C. Clinic Manager and AHDA member Dawn Jolly, RDH, says, “Since our facility became an Affiliate of NCOHF America’s Toothfairy, our rural community has benefited from the educational materials you provided. We have used them at many locations including Head Start centers, local public schools and daycares. We have participated in several community health fairs, benefits fairs and organizational functions using fluoride varnish you provided. “Without America’s Toothfairy, we would not have been able to afford the outreach we have provided the past couple of years in our community. Thanks for all you do to better the dental health of our children!” Visit www.AmericasToothfairy.org or www.ADHA.org to learn more!
