Ending the Year on a Charitable Note

The team at DentalWorks Forest Park in Illinois hosted a clothing drive. Team members asked patients to donate clothes and bring them to the practice. Patient Relations Coordinator Henry Dominguez said, “Our patients came through and decided to bless those in need! So excited and thankful.”

The DentalOne Partners’ marketing team joined forces before the holidays to create dozens of busy books (coloring pages stapled together with a bag of crayons) and new-sew blankets for patients at Children’s Medical Center Plano in Texas.

Associate Marketing Manager Candace Kent said, “The marketing team was able to come together and bond while making busy books and blankets to donate to the children’s hospital. I feel like it was an incredible experience! We were able to give back to our community while learning more about each other at the same time.”

A representative from the medical center’s volunteer services department said, “We greatly appreciate support from donors like you in our community to help us fulfill our mission of making life better for children.”

Team members at Firestone Dental Care in Colorado got their scissors out and made multiple no-sew blankets for Project Warm-Up of North Colorado. Operations Leader Kimberly Carrillo said, “We made fleece blankets for children in foster care!”

There are currently more than 60 children at Boulder County Foster Care and Adoption. The goal of this project was to receive 160 blankets; in total, it received 296.
