Students in the Dental Hygiene Program at Luzerne County Community College are giving back, supporting wellness for teenagers at Children’s Service Center. The group raised $600 through t-shirt sales and assembled hygiene kits – including a donation of toothbrushes and toothpaste – to promote self-care and emotional well-being for those receiving services at CSC’s Milford Barnes School.

CSC is grateful for the support of the LCCC Student American Dental Hygienists’ Association - SADHA, the LCCC Benco Dental Center, and the entire class of dental hygiene students who worked on this project and gave generously of their time to make it happen.

Presenting the kits this week at Children’s Service Center (from left) were: CSC’s Lindsay Bower, Director of Education, and Sydney Szafranovicz, Director of Partial Hospitalization; and LCCC’s SADHA Officers Nancy Morris of Wilkes-Barre (President), Estefany Veras of Wilkes-Barre (Secretary), and Andrea Lopez of Montrose (Treasurer).

This dental team in training is truly something to SMILE about!
