The OSAM Board of Directors has chosen to give back to the community by volunteering for Oregon Mission of Mercy in November.  Please join us in helping to make a difference in the lives of those in need.

The Oregon Dental Association is hosting Oregon’s first Mission of Mercy event on Monday & Tuesday, November 22-23, 2010.  Mission of Mercy is a massive dental clinic with portable dental stations set up in a large public arena.  Dental screenings and services are provided on a first-come, first-served basis, at no charge to those who attend.  MOM combines the donated services of hundreds of dental professionals and community volunteers to provide these free dental services.  The ODA’s goal is to provide $1 million worth of free dental care to 1,500 patients in this two-day clinic that is being held at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland.

More information is available on the Oregon MOM website which can be found by clicking on the MOM logo at www.oregondental.org.  ODA anticipates needing hundreds of community volunteers to make this event a success, so tell your colleagues, staff and friends and register to volunteer now!
