Exciting News!

Yesterday was extremely productive and a great launching site for our Smiles for Ghana 5K! The Day was filled with visiting local businesses, meeting the volunteers who will be taught and trained to go to Ghana, and finally meeting our graphic designer who has been so gracious to design all our posters and t-shirts for free! So special thanks to Chris for all his hard work.

I had the pleasure of going around with my crew of volunteers and visiting local businesses around the Ogden community and inviting them to participate in our program and 5K FUN RUN. All the businesses visited were extremely helpful and willing to share fund raising ideas and to spread the word to others! I was energized by what awesome businesses and local owners we have in our community. I'm glad that we all share that same passion to help Ghana, Africa with their struggle for health care. Kudos to all those awesome businesses out there and more to come! :)  

The meeting yesterday consisted of introducing the volunteers to the Smiles for Ghana program and inviting their support for our commitment to action. We had great enthusiasm and lots of willingness to help and reach out to others. Again we encourage everyone to please invite their friends and family to participate even if in a small way because everything counts.

The website for the 5K pre-registration will be ready by this week. Also stay tuned to Weber radio and to campus postings because Weber State University is about to be plastered with posters advertising our 5K Run on April 9th. Be sure to mark your calendars that date at 8:00am in the morning! The start line and check in will be set up by the Marriot Health building on Weber State Campus.

More updates coming soon but again we want to send special thanks to dental reps supplying needed samples and products to send to Ghana, and also to all those working to help support the cause in any way!
