We did it! Smiles For Life has completed another successful campaign to raise money for disadvantaged children all over the world – and we couldn’t have done it without you.
The 2019 Smiles For Life Campaign began on March 1. That’s only four months ago, but the time just shot by. Thousands of ordinary people took part in the campaign. The tally for this year isn’t in yet, but we’ve raised more than forty million dollars since 1998. Every last penny has benefitted hundreds of children’s charities.
“This is only possible thanks to the passion and dedication of our volunteer dentists and the wide range of Opalescence whitening products that Ultradent provides each year,” said Greg Anderson, director of the Crown Council in Salt Lake City. Each year, he explained, Ultradent donates teeth whitening products used in Smiles For Life.
And those dentists? Crown Council dentists use those Ultradent products to professionally whiten teeth for Smiles For Life. Hundreds of practices across the United States and Canada take part. Instead of paying the dentist, their patients make a check out to the Smiles For Life Foundation, which distributes the funds to approved children’s charities like Feed the Children, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, and the Ronald McDonald House. And that’s just to name a few.
We would like to extend a warm thank-you to everyone who took part by having their teeth professionally whitened during the 2019 Smiles For Life Campaign.
The Smiles For Life Foundation is the children’s charity arm of the Crown Council, an association of dental professionals who are committed to promoting oral health, fighting oral cancer, and to serving their communities through charitable work.
