Imagine missing school because your tooth aches or having to skip work because you can’t afford a dentist.
In California, kids miss 874,000 school days each year due to dental pain. 1 in 4 illness-related work absences are tied to poor oral health. And 1 in 5 seniors have lost all their natural teeth.
Now, with federal Medicaid cuts threatening Medi-Cal, access to basic dental care is slipping further out of reach for thousands of our neighbors.
At Sonrisas, we believe no one should suffer because they can’t afford a dentist. That’s why we’re launching the Neighbors Stepping Up campaign — and the West Coast Ramblers and La Nebbia Winery are stepping up with us!
Enjoy the Coast’s best bluegrass and most delicious wines all for a great cause. Tickets are limited, so grab some friends and buy your tickets before it’s too late!
Your donation can mean the difference between a child thriving in school or falling behind, a parent keeping their job, or a senior eating without pain.
Because everyone deserves to smile.
