Making a Difference One Smile at a Time

The Ayuda Clinic, Harbor Dental Society Foundation, and the Harbor Dental Society held a free community outreach event in Paramount to assist elementary and middle school students with some much needed dental care.

Local dentist Dr. Max Martinez, Immediate Past President of the Harbor Dental Society along with Dr. Ashok Mehta, Immediate Past Chair of the Harbor Dental Society Foundation, spearheaded the effort, including coordinating the event with representatives from the City of Paramount, and the Paramount Unified School District.

After a year of planning the Mobile Dental Clinic came to Paramount on October 19. The event was held in the Paramount High School Gym where the concession stand doubled as the instrument and sterilization facility. School age children as well as adults were seen for fillings, extractions, cleanings, fluoride treatments and sealants. Paramount High School students from the Health Careers Academy program assisted the doctors and helped patients fill out necessary forms.

Ayuda is a dental program out of USC dental school; students and faculty volunteers provide dental treatment using portable equipment to under-served children at elementary schools throughout Los Angeles and Orange County. Twice a year volunteer doctors in cooperation with Ayuda travel to Central and South America to deliver free patient care. The Ayuda program is headed by Dr. Harris Done a faculty member

at USC and a dentist

The event was attended by; Vice Mayor Diane Martinez, Councilmember Tom Hansen, PHS Board President Vivian Hansen, Vice President Sonya Cuellar, Board Member Alicia Anderson, and Manuel San Miguel, Director of Student Services.

Dr. Martinez said, “This is just one example of how working together for the common good can make a difference.”

Approximately 50 patients were seen at the mobile clinic, and more than $25,000.00 in free dental treatment was provided.

The Ayuda Clinic helped more than 50 patients leave the mobile clinic with a smile.

Watch Out For Charity Scams

As the holiday season – so full of giving and goodwill – approaches, it’s always a good idea to keep in mind that not everyone asking for contributions is on the level.

These days, charities and fundraisers (groups that solicit funds on behalf of organizations) use the phone, face-to-face contact, email, the internet (including social networking sites), and mobile devices to solicit and obtain donations. Naturally, scammers use these same methods to take advantage of your kindness. Regardless of how they reach you, avoid any charity or fundraiser that:

• Refuses to provide detailed information about its identity, mission, costs, and how the donation will be used.

• Won’t provide proof that a contribution is tax deductible.

• Uses a name that closely resembles that of a better-known, reputable organization.

• Thanks you for a pledge you don’t remember making.

• Uses high-pressure tactics like trying to get you to donate immediately, without giving you time to think about it and do your research.

• Asks for donations in cash or asks you to wire money.

• Offers to send a courier or overnight delivery service to collect the donation immediately.

• Guarantees sweepstakes winnings in exchange for a contribution. By law, you never have to give a donation to be eligible to win a sweepstakes.

Charity Checklist

Take the following precautions to make sure your donation benefits the people and organizations you want to help.

• Ask for detailed information about the charity, including name, address, and telephone number.

• Get the exact name of the organization and do some research. Searching the name of the organization online is one way to learn about its reputation.

• Check if the charity is trustworthy by contacting the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) Wise Giving Alliance, Charity Navigator, Charity Watch, or GuideStar.

• Ask if the caller is a paid fundraiser and, if so, ask: the name of the charity they represent; the percentage of your donation that will go to the charity; how much will go to the actual cause to which you’re donating; how much will go to the fundraiser.

• Keep a record of your donations.

• Never send cash donations. For security and tax purposes, it’s best to pay by check — made payable to the charity — or by credit card.

• Never wire money to someone claiming to be a charity. Scammers often request donations to be wired because wiring money is like sending cash: once you send it, you can’t get it back.

• Do not provide your credit or check card number, bank account number or any personal information until you’ve thoroughly researched the charity.

• Be wary of charities that spring up too suddenly in response to current events and natural disasters. Even if they are legitimate, they probably don’t have the infrastructure to get the donations to the affected area or people.

• If a donation request comes from a group claiming to help your local community (for example, local police or firefighters), ask the local agency if they have heard of the group and are getting financial support.

Vacation Home Checks

If you are a Paramount resident and have plans to be out of town during Thanksgiving or any part of the upcoming holidays, you can contact the Sheriff’s Station for a vacation home check.

The City’s Volunteers on Patrol will periodically take a look around your home or property while you’re gone. (This service is available throughout the year, not just during the holidays.)

Call (562) 220-2002 for more information.

“Fill a Plate and Fill a Heart with Hope”

California Outreach Organization feeds the needy in Paramount and four other Counties. The 501 (c) 3 Nonprofit Corporation began their weekly food give outs a year ago with strong support from the Paramount Chamber of Commerce.

Currently California Outreach feeds approximately 3,000 families every month; more than 400 of those families go to the Paramount headquarters. The organization needs donations for the holiday season which are a 501 (c) 3 tax deduction, said Founder Harald Niehenke. Mr. Niehenke went on to say, “We have a new video on our Website www.CaliforniaOutreach.ORG that gives information about the organization. The website, video and all promotional handouts are donated by AHA Media’s Alexander Hast (www.AHAMedia.com), also a member of the Paramount Chamber, and co-founder of California Outreach Organization.”

Actor Jonathan Joss, the voice of John

Redcorn of King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate of Parks and Recreation, was so impressed with California Outreach that he offered to become spokesman for the organization and is now actively working to expand the charity.

California Outreach’s mission is to feed the needy and support the working poor. Poverty has a new face; it has shifted from the homeless on skid row to regular working and middle class families who are fighting for survival. California Outreach wants to make sure that no child goes hungry for even one day. “Not on our watch, not in our community,” said Niehenke.

With the support of co-founder Winters McComas, Program Manager Cornelia Gilbert and Norbert Schreiber who works as Director for Riverside County, the Organization is expanding and needs additional sources for food and funding.

Sister Cities Anniversary Celebrated

The Sister Cities organization was founded to advance peace and prosperity through cultural exchanges.

Are You Prepared for An Emergency?

562-817-5620

Every year we face possible disasters

- wildfires, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes and winter storms. If a disaster strikes your home, are you and your family prepared? Do you know where important documents, medications, and essential supplies are in case you have to evacuate? Do you and your family know how you would get out of your house, what you would do with your pets, where you meet each other if you get separated? Do you have a single point of contact you can call to let others know you’re safe?

If not, now is the time to prepare. Don’t wait until faced with a disaster to begin thinking about emergency preparations. No matter what potential disaster you might face, there are basic items everyone should have in their emergency kit:

• Flashlight

• Battery-powered radio (don’t forget extra

batteries)

• Non-perishable food items and a manual can opener

• Bottled water

• Medications

• First-aid supplies

• Important family documents in a waterproof container

• One complete change of clothing and sturdy footwear

These items should be in a backpack or other easily portable bag that is stored in a safe place for quick retrieval. Each family member should have their own kit. At least once a year rethink your kit and replace batteries, food and clothes.

In addition to an emergency kit, be sure your family has an evacuation plan and communications plan. Every member of your household should be fully aware of what to do and where to go in case of an emergency. Additional information on being prepared for a disaster is available from emergency assistance organizations. Contact your local Police or Fire departments for more information.

David y Klaudette

Hola amigos que tal, espero se encuentren bien, nosotros contentos comunicándonos con todos ustedes por medio de este importante periódico PULSE.

Recordemos un poquito del paso #3 que fue la pasada edición. Hablamos sobre la supervisión activa que se basa en cinco expresiones: ¿Con quién?, ¿Qué? ¿A dónde? ¿Cuándo? Y ¿Por qué? Refiriéndonos ¿Con quién está mi hijo? ¿Qué hace? ¿A dónde fue? ¿Cuándo se fue? Y ¿Por qué debería ir?

Hablamos también de las apariciones repentinas que usted como madre/ padre puede hacer de vez en cuando, en el lugar en donde se encuentra su hijo(a). Todas estas cosas nos llevan a una supervisión activa.

Después de este pequeño recordatorio podemos pasar al paso #4

CONSECUENCIAS

Recordemos que en el paso #2 hablamos de establecer reglas; entonces ahora hablemos sobre las inevitables consecuencias. ¿Qué estamos obligados a hacer cuando nuestros hijos violan las reglas? Básicamente, una de las consecuencias implica quitar lo que ellos tanto desean. Por ejemplo: Quitar los privilegios de la Televisión, el celular, internet (solo para hacer su tarea) video-juegos, reuniones con los amigos, etc. Es mejor quitar todo lo que les gusta hacer durante un periodo corto de tiempo, en lugar de una o dos cosas durante mucho tiempo.

Las restricciones cortas son más eficaces que las largas, pues en la mayoría de los casos, los periodos con restricciones más extensas, hacen sentir a los jóvenes que están condenados a muerte. Muchos adolescentes se revelan porque piensan que no tienen nada que perder. Al principio, los padres deben mantener las restricciones breves, de dos días a una semana, según la edad y el temperamento de su adolescente.

Toda vez que sea posible permita que su adolescente enfrente sus consecuencias a causa de su conducta o actitud desfavorable.

La consecuencia tiene que importarle

al adolescente, tiene que implicar compromiso emocional; necesita querer y desear lo que está perdiendo, de otro modo la experiencia no servirá para mucho; por esto mismo necesitamos conocer los intereses y deseos de nuestros hijos. Cada caso en particular es diferente, lo que le afecte a uno tal vez no le afectara a otro chico, pues todos piensan y sienten diferente.

Cuando a los muchachos se les somete a una consecuencia, se sienten humillados, tristes, débiles y sin poder, y esto los pone en una posición muy vulnerable. Aun ahí necesitan del amor y consuelo de los padres.

Así que por favor evite los sermones, bromas, burlas o mostrarle que usted gano, y que siempre tiene la razón. Si usted lo hace, va a lastimar aún más su corazón en este periodo de fragilidad.

Acordémonos que no se trata de herir el corazón y sentimientos de nuestros hijos, que ellos vean que aun en las consecuencias hay amor en la mirada de sus padres. Los discursos largos y las amenazas solo demoran el proceso de cambio. Evitemos las luchas de poder. Los padres debemos mantener tolerancia Zero para todas las conductas destructivas de nuestros hijos; debemos hacerlo con firmeza pero sobre todo como amor. Las consecuencias negativas están diseñadas para cambiar la conducta del joven, no para satisfacer la frustración de los padres ni el deseo de venganza. Como padres, es nuestra responsabilidad ayudar a nuestros hijos a evitar consecuencias más graves, severas y a veces mortales de la vida, enseñándoles el peligro cuando todavía están bajo la protección del hogar.

Es un crimen permitirles a nuestros hijos que se enfrenten al mundo, sin saber que hay consecuencias negativas por todas nuestras malas acciones.

Bueno amigos, es todo por hoy, no se pierdan el siguiente paso, pues hablaremos sobre la Consistencia y Seguimiento de las consecuencias.

Recordemos las dos palabras mas poderosas en cualquier idioma son: TE AMO!

Hasta pronto y que tengan un excelente mes!
