We believe in giving back
We love being a part of this community—Dr. Stamatiades is an Asheville native, and he and his team understand the concept of paying it forward. We give back with time, skills, and financial resources. Some ways we help include:
ABCCM-Asheville Buncombe Community Christian Ministry. We provide free dental surgery for ABCCM residents, helping relieve the pain of toothache and infection for those in need.
Health Adventure. When children learn proper dental hygiene, they develop a lifelong habit that impacts their whole body. That’s why we sponsor elementary school classes to teach them about dental health during Dental Health month.
Eblen Foundation Program. We spend time providing dental sealants for second graders across Buncombe County. Why? Because that’s when children get permanent molars, and if we can protect those teeth by sealing them, these children have a 70% chance of no cavities, even into their 20s.
Girls on the Run. A national nonprofit educational and running program for pre-adolescent girls ages 8-11, Girls on the Run strengthens girls physically, emotionally, and socially to face the upcoming pressures of adolescence. We support this worthy program with sponsorships and by volunteering during their runs.
Dental Lifeline Network. When disabled, elderly, or medically-compromised people need dental work, we donate our services through this charitable organization affiliated with the American Dental Association. The services are provided to those who cannot afford treatment or those who do not qualify for public aid.
We offer time and money to many other wonderful nonprofits in the area, including Manna foodbank, school activities, and Boy and Girl Scout programs. We do this with gratitude, hoping we make some small difference in this place we love.
