Over 950 volunteers providing nearly $1 million in dental care
2010 Illinois Mission of Mercy Volunteer Friends,
Thank you for your extraordinary effort this weekend at Illinois' first Mission of Mercy! On behalf of our colleagues at the Illinois State Dental Society Foundation, we’re pleased to report that we achieved record-setting success! We treated 1,953 patients and provided close to $1,000.000.00 in free dental care in two days.
We were most impressed with the enthusiasm, compassion and diligence that characterized your service. Clinic, Patient Administration, Hospitality and Facilities hummed with kind concern and efficient productivity. Our patients recognized your commitment and have overwhelmed us with grateful thanks.
The event was memorable too for its collaborative spirit. Our patients benefitted from the amazing cooperative strength of clinicians and lay volunteers sharing their talents to address needs and deliver care. This event was special; we made a profound difference in our patients’ lives.
Thank you with sincere appreciation for all you have done!
Brad Barnes, D.D.S. & Mark Humenik, D.D.S., Co-Chairs, 2010 Illinois Mission of Mercy
