Do You Know Any Caretakers Of Injured Veterans In The Issaquah, WA Area?

If you do, please read this and then pass it on to others to get the word out.

Hello,

I am a dentist in Issaquah, Wa. Each year my office closes down on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and it is a paid day for us to go do some volunteer work together in the community. Through the years, we’ve worked with organizations like Habitat for Humanities and Eastside Baby Corner. This year we wanted to have a different avenue of service and explored many other options.

Inspired by the Seattle Times Story around Veterans Day regarding our injured veteran, Rory Dunn’s life, we would like to do something for the Caretakers of these injured veterans. These are the unsung heroes who take care of these injured veterans. I can’t imagine what they go through and how their lives are changed. Being a dental office, we are thinking many of them might have ignored their dental health while caring for their loved ones. This is an avenue where we can help.

So, we are planning to provide free dental care to the Caretakers of service disabled veterans on Wednesday, November 26th. I am working with Jeff Honeycutt of the VA to get the word out to these individuals.

However, because of the short time frame to get the word out, we hope you can help us spread this news so these Caretakers who could use our services will be able to take advantage of it. My staff is so excited about this they have contacted various businesses who have enthusiastically donated items to put in goodie bags for the Caretakers. Tully’s have offered to provide coffee, Coshttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.giftco has provided gift bags and Panera will provide pastries. We will have a massage therapist and manicurist to pamper these Caretakers as they wait for their appointments or after their appointments. It should be a fun day. I am attaching the flyer that has been passed out to the veterans’ family at the VA hospital.

Please feel free to pass this information on to any other person or group that can benefit from this service.

For more details, feel free to call me at 425 392-8992 or 425 830-6402 or email me at drcheng@theresacheng.com

Thanks,

Theresa Cheng DDS
