Students Provide Dental Support
Holy Angels first grade teacher Deb Kincaide provided an opportunity for her students to reach out to others this year. Along with other HA students, the first graders collected 1189 toothbrushes, tooth paste and eye glass holders which were taken to Honduras by volunteers Gayle and Ros Ritter. The Ritters spoke earlier in the year at an assembly and explained about a group which brings dental and medical services to the people of Honduras who otherwise would not have access to the basic health services.
They served over 1000 people in seven days with Rob performing over 300 dental surgeries while Gayle assisted with post-op. They recalled one boy who never saw a toothbrush before.
