Volunteer Description

Various volunteer opportunities throughout New Jersey including:

Give Kids a Smile

Give Kids A Smile Day is a national program supported by the ADA and locally by the NJDA. On the first Friday in February, volunteers in the dental community open their hearts and doors to provide free dental care to children who could not otherwise afford dental services.

Share a Smile

Share a Smile is searching for pediatric dentists who are willing to provide comprehensive care for at least ONE patient at no charge during February-May 2021. This program is supported by the NJ Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and NJ Hygiene Program.

Veterans Smile Day

The “Veterans Smile Day” mission is to provide free dental care and support to our military veterans as our small way of thanking them for their service. Our hope is that in the process, veteran’s will find a permanent dental home for themselves and their families.

Smiles for Our Heroes

Smiles For Our Heroes is a two-day event providing free dental care to eligible vets and their families. This program is sponsored by Zufall Health, Delta Dental of NJ, and the NJDA. The week-end brings together volunteer dental professionals who perform dental services ranging from cleanings to extractions and dentures.
