COVID has impacted everyone in the world including Dental Lifeline Network. We rely on our amazing volunteers and dentists and laboratories have also struggled and many have not been able to accept as many of our patients as in the past. Nonetheless, we were still able to bring life changing and life-saving services to over 11,000 patients this year.
As a result, we reached a major milestone—$500 million in donated treatment for 168,000 people with special needs since we started the first Donated Dental Services (DDS) program in 1985. That is something very special to celebrate!
We are so grateful for our dedicated volunteer dentists who began to see patients again, the labs that started donating materials and many of our donors and partners that went above and beyond, making significant donations!
Thank you for all you do, our volunteer dentists and labs, dental and insurance industry supporters, other partners and donors—you make DLN the success it is.
