On April 28th, Danville Dental Associates reached out to the community to support our area students with a project called \u201cSmile for Schools\u201d. Patients were offered at-home bleaching kits regularly valued at $399, for a $100 donation to be given to the patient’s designated school of choice. These included public or private schools; primary, middle or high schools; and special needs schools in Danville City and Pittsylvania County areas.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The schools may decide how they wish to use the funds they receive from Danville Dental\u2019s patients. It may be distributed to the school\u2019s PTO or PTA, an athletic or academic boosters club, the band boosters or any worthwhile area of need for that particular school.<\/p>\n
