Help Save a Child's Smile This Christmas

You can bring a smile to a child's face and help their parents wipe away their tears.

 

We urgently need your help to expand.

 

The Joseph P. Addabbo Family Health Center “JPA” is on the frontline of helping the children of our local community with high-quality dental care.

 

Unfortunately, there are many children in our community that have to wait weeks on end just to be seen for dental care…

 

So many children need our help but we just can’t get to them fast enough.

 

Our dental team at JPA tries to treat every child that enters our doors as an emergency.

 

We currently see over 6,000 children per year and the calls from parents asking for our help are increasing.

 

We want to help the children and families that call upon us but it’s become a logistical nightmare.

 

We only have so many examination rooms to treat the children and know the only way to see more is to expand. Shuffling scheduled appointments and telling parents they have to wait for weeks is something we can’t bear any more.

 

Serving so many children with dental needs throughout the year is growing difficult. It’s getting worse with more requests pouring in every day.

 

There is hope though… and that hope is you.

 

By donating today, you will help us to expand the number of examination rooms and we’ll be able to increase how many children we see per day.

 

No child should have to wait and suffer just because we’re out of room. We need to expand now more than ever. Without you, we won’t be able to achieve this.

 

Your gift will change the life of the children of the Rockaways and surrounding communities.

 

Please donate today to help us build more examination rooms and expand our ability to help children in need.

 

JPA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All donations are tax deductible.We know that dental pain contributes to so many other problems that are more than just discomfort while eating or losing sleep.

 

Dental pain contributes to children missing school and malnutrition, psychological problems of poor self-image, low self-esteem and fear of not being socially accepted.
