Dental Capacity Kick-Off Event

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our Dental Capacity Kick-Off Event for friends and family on June 26th! Our team had a great time reconnecting and sharing our purpose for starting this non-profit organization.

Our website, dentalcapacity.org, is now up and running. If you are interested in hearing updates, progress, and stories of those impacted through Dental Capacity, please make sure to sign up for our newsletter on the website.

We have selected DonorBox as our provider to process donations for Dental Capacity. They provide a secure site for donations and will automatically provide a donation receipt for tax purposes. The secure site can be accessed either by clicking the Donate button on our website dentalcapacity.org or go directly to https://donorbox.org/dental-capacity.

I just returned back to Guinea and it was great to update our Guinean volunteers, dental students, and others about the kick-off event and the start of Dental Capacity. Everyone is touched and appreciative that a group of people outside of Guinea were interested in hearing about their vision to impact the oral health system in Guinea. We are all excited in Guinea to get started! We are working on the initial projects right now for Dental Capacity, so please look out for those updates very soon.

Thank you to everyone for being available, open, and willing to hear about Dental Capacity. As a new organization, we are looking for support and can use everyone’s help. If you have any questions, good contacts, or want to connect, please email info@dentalcapacity.org to set up a time for a virtual meeting.

Additionally, if you, or anyone you know has a connection to 3M Company, we are happy to announce that Dental Capacity has been approved as a charitable donation match organization – effectively doubling any sort of donation you may be willing to provide. Please be sure to utilize this perk if possible – feel free to reach out with questions on how to do it (pshiner@mmm.com).

Thanks, everyone!

Dave and the Dental Capacity Team
