More than 26 people volunteered to help uninsured veterans at a Veterans Dental Day held Saturday, Nov. 14 at Marmora Family Dental.
The dental office joined around 100 offices across the nation to provide free dental services to veterans. Dr. Al Harris, Dr. Robert Kimball, Jr., and Dr. Christopher Nguyen of the Marmora office were assisted by Dr. Dan Loggi, Dr. Wei-Lun Wang, Dr. Susan Wyszynski, and Dr. Bob Woolery, Sr. and Dr. Bob Woolery, Jr.
Dental hygienist Chris Nickles helped organize the event at the Marmora office. Breakfast, lunch, and refreshments were provided to veterans, along with other services such as a free hair cut by the Village Barber Shop in Wayside Village.
“We plan to make this an annual event,” Nickles said.
Office manager Carol Foglio and Nickles worked to raise donations from local businesses. Tables, a tent and chairs were donated along with money. Foglio said monetary donations would be given to Disabled Sports USA South Jersey Chapter. Disabled Sports USA provides opportunities for individuals with disabilities to compete in sports, recreation and educational programs.
A veteran who asked not to be identified thanked Marmora Family Dental and the staff.
“I am very thankful,” he said. “I live on a fixed income. May God bless them all for their service.”
The Marmora dental office also offers free notary services to its patients.
