The money raised at the benefit will fund the operation of the dental van for nearly a year, providing restorative services to more than 2,000 children at schools throughout Chicago’s West Side, where access to dental care is scarce.
“As a result of the dedication of our benefit volunteers, donors and event sponsors, we were able to host an extremely successful fundraiser,” said José R. Sánchez, president and CEO of Norwegian American Hospital. “The support we receive has an incredible impact on the communities we serve, providing funds to help us advance our mobile healthcare services and through our new pediatric dental van, provide more dental screenings and oral health education.”
