Oral Health America (OHA) raised nearly $500,000 at its 21st annual Gala and Benefit on February 23 during the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting, the association announced.
More than 840 guests mixed, mingled, and danced under tempered glass, exotic metal fixtures, grand stone columns, antique light fixtures, and an enormous Tyrannosaurus rex dinosaur skeleton at the Field Museum while participating in an auction and raffle to benefit OHA's programs.
At the event, OHA paid special tribute to the companies and organizations that have donated more than $1 million each: ADA, Dentsply International, Henry Schein, Procter & Gamble, Wm. Wrigley Jr., W.K. Kellogg Foundation, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Trident.
