A-dec is pleased to announce that it has joined the Australian Dental Health Foundation (ADHF) as a supporting sponsor, to help the organisation deliver the operation of charitable dental programs to assist disadvantaged Australians.
The 3-year sponsorship agreement of $40,000 per year, will run until July 2024. The funding will help support the ADHF coordinate the delivery of pro bono dental treatment and oral healthcare education to disadvantaged members of the community.
A-dec Director International Sales, Craig Young, said, "Over its 57 years in business as a family-owned company, A-dec has at its core a strong belief in helping the communities in which it operates all over the world.
"We are very proud to have been invited to support the ADHF programs to provide pro-bono dentistry to disadvantaged members of the Australian community. We look forward to working closely with the ADHF team to assist wherever possible."
A-dec Australia General Manager, Patrick Jones, said he sees this partnership "as a great opportunity to assist in the provision of quality dental care to all Australians regardless of their financial, geographical or social situation."
The foundation accepts referrals to the Volunteer Dental programs for clients who are being supported by a registered charity or not for profit organisation. The dental volunteers provide their time, expertise and practice facilities at no cost to eligible patients.
The ADHF also funds programs that encourage better oral health outcomes and reduce the inequality of access to education within the community through its Community Service Grants, Indigenous Study Grants and Oral Health Projects.
