On the heels of Oral Health Awareness Month, The GLO Good Foundation is proud to be a part of Care Harbor, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit organization that helps uninsured and underserved populations by organizing large-scale free urban health clinics. Taking place at the L.A. Sports Arena from October 31st to November 3rd, Care Harbor will offer dental, eye and medical examination to more than 4,000 Los Angeles residents that do not have access to medical care. As part of this large scale clinic, Dr. Jonathan B. Levine, oral health expert and founder of GLO Good, an oral care organization that brings dental education to those in need around the world, will be in attendance offering services ranging from cleanings to extractions. Additionally, Dr. Levine will be giving an educational presentation on the importance of oral care to those at the arena waiting to be seen.
A recent study conducted by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) found that nearly a quarter of adult’s ages 20-64 are living with untreated dental issues. Care Harbor and GLO Good are a few of the organizations nationwide, working together to create healthier lifestyles with brighter smiles.
The mission of the GLO Good foundation is to make all people smile, and for good oral health to be available to everyone. To learn more about GLO Good, the founders and the GLO mission, visit: www.gloscience.com/glogood
About Care Harbor
Care Harbor brings help and hope to the uninsured and underserved in America’s urban centers. The organization works with local community resources and volunteers to produce free clinics providing comprehensive medical, dental, and vision care to individuals and families who are without access to the healthcare they need. There is no cost to the patient for the services provided. Clinics are staffed by professional and general volunteers, and supported by donations – both financial and in-kind – from local and national supporters. Don Manelli, President of Care Harbor, recently received the NBC4 Life Connected Award, which celebrates acts of community goodwill in Southern California. Manelli was also an Unsung Heroes of Los Angeles honoree and one of the California Endowment’s Health Happens Heroes.
