Community
Sharing our good fortune
The Dentist doesn’t just talk the talk when it comes to community involvement; we get right in there and help! We believe in sharing our good fortune with organisations that rely on donations for health research and provide health services.
These organisations include:
- The Cancer Council Australia: A national, non-government cancer control organisation with the aim of prevention, research, support and care.
- The Children’s Cancer Institute: Dedicated to research into the causes, prevention, better treatments and, ultimately, a cure for childhood cancers.
We also support the School of St Jude in Tanzania, a sponsorship-supported school started by Gemma Sisia in East Africa to help fight poverty through free education of disadvantaged children.
We support community radio station East Side Radio, a wonderful station with volunteer presenters, many of whom are prominent figures in Australian music, the arts and the community.
If you’d like to make a donation to the charities and institutions above, please visit their websites.
