CHARLOTTE, NC / NEW YORK, NY, USA: Hu-Friedy, a manufacturer of dental instruments, recently donated dental products valued at more than US$11,000 to National Children’s Oral Health Foundation: America’s Toothfairy (NCOHF) to enhance vital oral health services for children from vulnerable populations. Howard University, a member of the NCOHF Affiliate network, is recipient of the contribution.

The Hu-Friedy dental supplies will aid in expansion of Howard University’s pediatric oral health outreach programs in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area. As an NCOHF Affiliate, Howard University is part of a national network of more than 60 nonprofit health-care programs with a shared mission to provide the best education, prevention, and treatment programs for underserved children. In less than five years, NCOHF has delivered more than US$7 million in funding and donated products to Affiliate partners across the country.

“Hu-Friedy is proud to be affiliated with National Children’s Oral Health Foundation, and we are happy to make this donation, which will help children get access to care that will improve their overall oral health,” said Ron Saslow, president and CEO of Hu-Friedy. “At Hu-Friedy our mission is to improve lives through better dentistry – smile after smile, so our support of the NCOHF is a natural extension of this fundamental purpose.”

“We are very grateful that Hu-Friedy supports our mission to eliminate children’s suffering from preventable pediatric dental disease,” said Fern Ingber, NCOHF president and CEO. “Generous NCOHF partners like Hu-Friedy make it possible for NCOHF Affiliates to giving underserved children the comprehensive care they deserve.”
