2023Gift of Smiles Annual Gala

Everyone deserves the opportunity to have good health, which naturally should include good dental health. For children and adults with disabilities, accomplishing that goal is often met with countless and complex obstacles.  The time to address this issue is now! Last year's Gala was a tremendous success and your generosity has allowed us to begin to treat numerous underserved patients. There are over 190,000 individuals in PA with developmental disabilities.

"A Gift of Smiles" is a foundation to simplify and broaden the access to dental healthcare for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, by removing existing financial, clinical and societal barriers. Our goal is to continue to raise awareness and resources around this critical issue. We hope that our foundation will bridge the gap that families face when trying to receive proper dental care, regardless of insurance or provider limitations.
