Operation Gratitude 2016
Our annual candy drive for Operation Gratitude was a record breaker. We broke our previous record of 460 lbs collected this year and collected a whopping 600 lbs of candy!!! Candy was shipped to our service members over seas through the Operation Gratitude organization as a thank you for their service. This is a program we participate in via Pacific Palisades Pediatric Dentistry (PPPD). For every pound of candy we collect PPPD gives us $1. So that's $600 towards our fundraising goal of $20,000, which will go to charity. Thank you to all who donated their halloween candy. Oh, and we made this a raffle as well. For every cup of candy donated students received one raffle ticket. We raffled gift cards from Starbucks and AMC.
Special thanks to Ms. Levy and Mrs. Gardner for picking up the candy from Revere and delivering it to PPPD every day!
