Helping hand for Adelaide’s most vulnerable

Vol. 10 No. 4 ISSN 2071-7962 PUBLISHING EDITOR Ursula Jenkins

Common Ground Community Outreach Dental Program brings dental care to Adelaide’s homeless population. They have been doing this since 2011 and the clinic has seen over 750 patients with numerous repeat visits. Teaming with Adelaide University, the clinic also provides training for students which is an ideal situation to provide much needed care while providing quality supervised treatment. While they run the clinic in the most cost effective way they can, there is of course a need for funds to continue the good work they do. The University of Adelaide together with Henry Schein Halas through the Henry Schein Cares program teamed together to organise a charity event with all proceeds going towards the clinic. On the 16th October 2015 at St Marks College in North Adelaide, guests were treated to a three course meal while being entertained by all dental band - Fang Coup. The event hosted several opportunities for guests to donate to the clinic, including a live auction, silent auction and the very popular mystery wine wall. “We are so pleased to be able to help the University and the clinic in this fun way. Common Ground Community Outreach Dental Program is the perfect fit for our Henry Schein Cares Program as it incorporates our goal of ‘doing well by doing good’ - as well as helping in the oral health domain” said Gordon Anderson, Vice President, ANZ Henry Schein. The $44 000 raised on the night will ensure the clinic continues to run in 2016. While the event was a huge success, more funds are needed. If you would like to donate or are interested in volunteering in the clinic, please contact Margie.steffens@adelaide.edu.au.
