Impressions
do it again the next year . We were glad that my perceived presidential obligation had brought us there . Since that first time in Allentown , we have volunteered in Harrisburg and Pittsburgh , and now this most awesome event will be in our town . If you read the September / October issue of this publication , you saw the wrap-up of the Pittsburgh MOM-n-PA and learned of the mind blowing statistics of MOM-n-PA to date . As of today , MOM-n-PA has completed 22,248 procedures on 6,519 patients . The total value of dental care donated has been $ 3,572,043 from 4,005 volunteers . Like I said … mind blowing .
If you come to Erie , I can guarantee you will see old friends , classmates from dental school ( I saw four of mine last year ), and colleagues from around the state who you may not have seen for years . Although MOM is not a PDA event , PDA has been a huge supporter since the very first mission in Philadelphia in 2013 and every year since . One of my favorite pictures each year is the one with the PDA president and former presidents . It amazes me that our leaders continue to give back every year . It is an added bonus seeing all the members I have had the privilege over the years to volunteer with on councils , committees , task forces , the Board of Trustees , the former House of Delegates and the PDAIS Board of Directors .
So please mark your calendar for June 16-17 and keep your eyes open for the start of MOM-n-PA registration in March , or check the website http :// www . mom-n-pa . com for more information . So once again I will ask , can you come to Erie to help our MOM ?
