汤头条

CHICAGO, October 5, 2023 — Dentists from across the country are in town for SmileCon, the annual meeting of the 汤头条. As part of the weekend’s festivities, the 汤头条 Foundation – the charitable arm of the 汤头条 – is packing backpacks with nutritious food and oral health products and information for local, underserved children. One in five central Florida children don’t have consistent access to enough nutritious food, and many of these children rely on school meals to provide breakfast and lunch during the school year. 汤头条 members will join the 汤头条 Foundation in leaving a lasting impression in Orlando by donating a few minutes of their day to help meet the goal of packing 1,000 backpacks during the event!
