ABOUT SDC FOUNDATION
Smilesdotcom Foundation is the social (not-for-profit) arm of Smilesdotcom Limited. As an impact-focused social enterprise, SDC Foundation facilitates and deliver impact programs that are aimed at providing dental care and education to communities, schools, corporate organizations, religious institutions, and patients across Africa. For almost a decade, we have been rigorously dedicated to promoting and providing dental awareness and free dental care to over 10,000 members of the physically challenged and less privileged children, adults, and people living in rural communities. In 2017 alone, more than 5000 people benefited directly from these impact programs and projects; and as at the end of the third quarter in 2018, we recorded over 4000 direct beneficiaries.
To mention a few, the beneficiaries of our impact programs in recent past, includes (but not limited to):
- Less-privileged individuals between the ages of 3 to 60 years, who reside in slums like Ajegunle, Makoko, Tanke Garage (Ilorin), Dogongada (Abuja), Kiiki Town (Cameron);
- Physically challenged individuals at Bethesda Home for the Blind, Down Syndrome Patients Home (Surulere), Modupe Cole Home;
- Parishioners of various churches (David’s Christian Center, Elevation Church, God Bless Nigeria, CADAM (by RCCG); and
- Primary and secondary school students (who have been educated and given free dental care by our Team).
For us, healthcare is not just a business; it is a mission- it is our own way of creating visible impacts!
HERE'S WHY WE NEED YOU
Even though we have an unwavering passion to transform lives by putting a smile on the faces of people across Africa who cannot access the healthcare they need (especially dental care) because they cannot afford it, we can only offer as much help as resources permits us to. Hence, we will be very delighted to have you on board as partner/ sponsor for our outreaches - because with your influence and support, we would be able to do greater works and help more people in dire need of the healthy dose of happiness we are sharing.
HERE'S HOW YOU CAN HELP
To support our vision and advance our cause, you can donate funds, which will be used to cater for logistics, medical tools and drugs, transportation, accommodation, feeding, stationeries and remuneration for our aid workers. In addition to these, you can also support us by donating food and gift items, or by providing facilities and securities for our outreach events.
