Pitt DSD Mission Trip to the Dominican Republic 2017

Start Date: Apr 29, 2017 9:32 AM
End Date: May 7, 2017 12:00 AM

During our semester break from April 29 to May 7th, we will be joining Bright Island Outreach in the Dominican Republic to provide dental care to the community.

Here is a short video documenting our trip last year

The Bright Island Outreach mission is to provide free dental care to the people of the Caribbean and Central America. Dental professionals and students, and non-dental volunteers deliver treatment, education, and preventive care in remote settings to children and adults with limited access to services. Students treat patients under the direct supervision of dentists and hygienists, who are asked to participate primarily as clinical mentors and educators. With a vision to transform lives and communities, B.I.O. provides opportunities for volunteerism, breaking down barriers to inter-professional collaboration among communities of healthcare professionals in the countries we serve.

Join us in our cause and help us through your donations. Your every donation, be it small or large, will us help greatly and is dearly appreciated.
