We are pleased to announce since we began this cooperative project in August 2010 we have donated a total $61,100.00 to local area schools!! For the current school year, beginning August 1, 2012, we have donated $7,200.00!
In review, for every patient that starts full orthodontic treatment in our office we will donate $100 to a school of their choice to help out with classroom supplies. We disperse the funds to the schools every month with a letter including the name of the patient(s) who chose that school to receive the donation.
Recently, the Lexington Herald Leader, The Hamburg Journal and also Business Lexington have written articles about our "Partners in Education" program. We have been fortunate to have the word spread about this exciting project. By informing our communities about our "Partners in Education" program, it allows us to continue supporting our surrounding schools with these much needed donations.
Below is an excel sheet with the school totals so far for this academic school year.
