Growing Smiles Featured on the News!

Just a quick update to the candy buyback program. We were featured on Channel 49 in Topeka. If you would like to view the video, click here to see it. You can also click here to read the story. Thanks again to everyone who participated! We sent it out to the troops and they should be receiving it shortly.

Toys-For-Tots Drop-Off

For the Fourth Year in a row, Growing Smiles is a drop-off location for Douglas County Toys-for-Tots.

Please bring a new, unopened toy to Growing Smiles at 1425 Wakarusa, Suite D. The last day we will be accepting toys for the program is December 20, 2010. All toys and money donations go to children in and around Douglas County.

We are looking forward to helping this great program. Please call us at 785-856-5600 if you have any questions.

Over 500 Pounds of Candy Donated By Growing Smiles Patients!

On November 3, 2010, over 200 families showed up to Growing Smiles to donate candy to our military personnel overseas during the Candy Buyback Program! We collected over 500 pounds of candy (and probably eliminated a whole bunch of cavities too!)

Here is a picture of just part of the candy we received:

The kids had a great time getting a ticket for each pound of candy they donated. Then they entered it in a raffle to win a cool prize, like an XBox 360, a Nintendo DS and lots of other cool prizes.

Thanks again to all of those who participated and to the winners of all the neat prizes for making this such a fun event. We also collected several letters from kids to our service men and women that we will include with the care package. If you missed the event, we will be doing it again in 2011!
