FROM THE HEART
Winding Down the Year by Giving Back
Dental for being on board year after year and consistently showing up. Every year, Jessica makes sure we do this bigger and better!
We also had a lot of assistance from other dental staff in the area, and I want to give a huge thanks to them for donating their time. In addition, this event would not be what it is without those of you who help spread the word about Dentistry From The Heart. Looking back at this amazing event from our first time hosting it to now, we’ve managed to grow our reach each year. This year during Dentistry From The Heart:
How is winter treating you? It must be the holiday season because all I want to do is spend time at home with my family and friends. Our family has grown and is more spread out these days, and I’m grateful for the moments we get to share, even if sometimes they’re over the phone or video chat instead of in person. I am hoping to get up to the mountains to ski with my sons at some point, but really, as long as we get some time together, that’s all that matters. “It’s about doing our part to help our community and giving back, one person at a time.” In early November, we hosted one of my favorite events of the year, Dentistry From The Heart. During this free day of dental care, we serve people from all over the Treasure Valley. No matter how tired I feel at the end of the day, I always go home feeling grateful. Every year, it’s a reminder of how much I have to be grateful for and how much we can accomplish when we work together. They say it takes a village, and that truly applies to this volunteer event. Serving our community with free dental care would not be possible without help. I’m very thankful for our team at Ustick

Of course, at the end of the day, it’s not about the numbers. It’s about doing our part to help our community and giving back, one person at a time. In that spirit, we’re taking part in The Idaho Foodbank’s holiday food drive this year. During regular business hours through Dec. 18, we’re taking donations for nonperishable food items. Please feel free to bring what you can. Thank you for being part of this great cause.
Merry Christmas,
-Dr. Rigby
