spREAD THE WORD

By letting others know of the trip you are embarking on, you can highlight the work you will be doing and inspire others to get involved as well. We encourage you to contact your local newspapers and media sources to let them know of your pending adventure. If you are a Dentist, DLF can provide posters and pamphlets for your waiting room to inform your patients of your upcoming trip.

​

 

Some practices have also chosen to donate $5.00 of every Hygiene visit to DLF to create awareness and to raise funds for the trip. This can also set you apart from other local dental offices in your community.
