2013 TODS 9th Annual Silent Auction
Fund Raiser
Friday October 25, 2013 10:00am-5:00pm – Grand Foyer
The TODS 9th annual fundraiser promises some exciting new changes and surprises this year. Look for some fun ways to give back to the community by bidding on our WALL of WINE, or treating yourself and friends to a fabulous CULINERY EVENING or a LIFE EXPERIENCE package.
We will be raising funds to support the British Columbia’s Dental Association Save-A-Smile Program. Since 1991, the British Columbia Dental Association’s Save a Smile (SAS) program has been supporting BC children in need of urgent dental care. SAS is a community-based direct care program that works in partnership with dental public health staff across BC to ensure that children without access to public or private dental plan coverage receive the dental care they urgently need. In addition to providing urgent treatment through private practice dentists, dental public health staff provide parent education to prevent dental problems from recurring.
Please come out on Friday October 25, 2013 and be generous in your support of the 2013 Silent Auction! Please click here to see how you can help make this Silent Auction Fund Raiser a success!
