September 5th Construction Trip

Posted by Admin On August - 25 - 2010

Hey Sammers:
Hope summer is treating you all really well!

BIG NEWS: We are proud to announce that plans have officially been finalized for the complete reconstruction of our severely rain-damaged roof. This has been a project in the works for many years, and the successful completion of our construction plans will ensure that our clinic will withstand the elements and provide healthcare for our wonderful patients for many years to come. In order to make these plans a reality, we are in desperate need of your help. The clinic trip will take place the entire day of SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 5th 2010. This is on Labor Day weekend.

WE ARE ESPECIALLY IN NEED OF:

- 25 to 30 STRONG YOUNG MEN-
The work will be labor intensive and if you have had construction experience in the past you may be especially interested in this trip. Please feel free to invite family or friends who may be interested as well, just make sure they sign-up on the link below.

-A MINIMUM OF THREE PICK-UP TRUCK DRIVERS-
We NEED you. If you drive a pick-up truck and wish to come we will take you. It is essential that we have large cars to fit the shingles and other materials in. We will most likely meet with you day before the trip or even earlier to load your car with the necessary materials.

-TOOLS-
If you have any construction tools at all (hammers, power tools etc) please feel free to bring them down as well.

-Additional details regarding construction trip day events, appropriate attire, and safety will be sent if you are attending the trip.

April Clinic Trip Open till April 17th

Posted by Admin On March - 28 - 2010

Hey Sammers, We hope spring break has been wonderful, and you guys are refreshed and ready to start spring quarter! Per usual, we would like to announce the opening of sign-ups for our April 17th clinic trip: the window will close Thursday April 8th at midnight. A profound thanks to everyone who signed up for last month’s clinic trip! To our great dismay, we felt the need to take the extra precaution of cancelling the trip due to the travel advisory to Mexico issued by the State Department on March 14, 2010. However, we do not anticipate having to forgo this month’s trip, although it may be subject to cancellation. Sign up asap, especially if you can drive or translate, we will be needing your help!

March Clinic Trip Cancelled

Posted by Admin On March - 18 - 2010

Dear all, We just wanted to extend our sincere thanks to all of you who offered to attend the March 20th clinic trip and help out, as always we appreciate your help more than we can say. Unfortunately, due to the recent Mexico travel advisory issued by the State Department on March 14th, 2010, we have decided it is in our best interests to delay the clinic trip for the time-being, just as a precautionary measure. We thank you for your understanding on this issue, it is always incredibly difficult to miss a trip to the clinic, both for us, and especially for our patients. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do contact us. Best of luck on finals, and have a safe spring break!

Sincerely,
MJ Vennat and Yas Sanaiha

Sign up asap, especially if you can drive or translate, we will be needing your help! We are still in need of more DENTAL health professionals to join us on the trips.
