KenYa See MY Future in Your Eyes Dental Banquet
Dentistry services are vital! Malnutrition has caused severe tooth decay and most villagers do not have the luxury of a toothbrush, toothpaste or dental floss. Instead they use "bottle brush" tree limbs to brush their teeth
The banquet will feature Kenyan food and a Live & Silent Auction. All proceeds gained during the banquet will benefit the Dental Program at the KipKaren Clinic
