Thanks, Zed. We are up to $695 USD in one day, so I hope we are on a roll to get this funded.

Yes, and thank you for your generosity! Yours was one of the first donations, and it is much appreciated.

We are up to $1,035 after only one day, 26% of our goal! WHEE! And yes, I do agree, my contribution to the free dental clinic is a small price to pay if it means I do not have to worry about paying for dental work for my maid's teeth, and the teeth of her 11 siblings and surviving parents. (Obviously the parents did not have TV, but I digress!)

We are at the 50% mark--only $2,000 USD to go. If you are thinking about giving, won't you do so now and give us a push? PM me if you have questions or post them here (no rants, tho, or I will give you a root canal). Remember, you can donate online using a credit card. Or PM me if you would rather give cash--we can make secure arrangements for that.

Wow. Over 80% of your goal in just a few days! Congrats.

If you raised more money could/would you also provide orthodontic treatment for worthy individuals??

A straight set of teeth and a nice smile can overcome problems for many young people.

We are at $3535 this morning with just $465 to go!!! Harry is going out today to make a deposit on the equipment.

SunFan, orthodonture is a great idea, let's start a separate topic and explore it. Bridges would be a great idea, too--I don't think the free dental clinic will run to making bridges for people.

No but here is 200P for the cause.  

I am sure you can use extra for the no shows.

How do we pay??

Well at least my mistake triggered another donation from ZED!

Your update didn't indicate the goal was reached and the web site still showed a $75 USD delta.

I'm sure the money will be needed for ongoing meds and supplies ( and bridges and braces!!)

Hearty Congratulations to your entire fundraising team. An amazingly effective job in a very short time!

For a while we were depositing cash contributions so that all donations showed up on the online fundraising site. But the last few in-cash contributions have gone straight into the purchases. Zed, I can come get your donation or we can meet somewhere--let me know what works for you.
