I’ve been blessed my whole life with opportunity and help from family and friends. There is no way I would be where I am today without all of this help. Therefore, I believe it is my obligation to give back any chance I can.
My first experience with dental philanthropy started in 2009 when a few of my dental school classmates and myself had the chance to become apart of something larger than ourselves. Global Dental Relief, an organization dedicated to providing dental care for children of under-developed countries, helped coordinate our dental student group in providing dental treatment to children in Guatemala. Below are a few photos from our trip!
In 2014 a close friend, and fellow Guatemala-trip philanthropist, told me of an incredible new opportunity through Global Dental Relief! Remembering the incredibly humbling trip we took before, I quickly signed up.
