WDA Foundation Mission of Mercy


A message from WDA Mission of Mercy state program chair

Dear Mission of Mercy volunteer,

As you all know, this year's Wisconsin Dental Association and WDA Foundation Mission of Mercy event was a resounding success.

Dr. Jim Morgenroth

 

This event is volunteer-driven and could not function without the hundreds of you that were there. The professionals that actually treat the patients would be at a standstill without the support of you all.

Regardless of your position, YOU individually made a difference. I met some of you, but not enough to thank you all personally.

So, please consider this my THANK YOU with an 'e-handshake' for your efforts.

We have helped many people to smile more and be able to sleep better and THAT, my friends, is what it is all about!

See you in June 2012 - mark it down.

Sincerely,


Jim Morgenroth, DDS

Volunteering in 2012

Please plan to join us for the fourth WDA Mission of Mercy event June 28 – July 1 (set-up Thursday, clinic Friday and Saturday, tear-down Saturday and Sunday) at the Alliant Energy Center.

Goals include treating 3,500 patients and providing $1.75 million in free dental care.

This event will be the largest yet with 150+ dental chairs. We will need approximately 1,700 volunteers in all - dentists, assistants, hygienists, lab and X-ray technicians, sterilization people, translators, patient escorts and other general volunteers.

Note all volunteers must be age 18 or older, no exceptions.

Online volunteer registration will open in mid-March.

Out-of-state licensed volunteers

All dentists and hygienists volunteering must have a current Wisconsin license. If you are volunteering and hold a license from another state, you may obtain a temporary no-fee charity permit through the Wisconsin Department of Regulation and Licensing.
