Shockingly, many kids from low-income homes don't have a toothbrush to practice daily dental hygiene habits.
|
During the month of October, invite 10 of your friends to donate 25 toothbrushes to their local food bank OR give $25 to provide toothbrushes for 50 kids in need!
|
|
|
Do you serve diverse communities whose members speak languages other than English? If so, America's ToothFairy is pleased to announce the launch of our newly redesigned webpage that includes oral health education materials in Arabic, French, Korean, Spanish and more. New materials will be added soon.
