Patients That Give

This is an unusual posting for a dental office since it does not have to do with dentistry, but I was so impressed with the story one of our patients told me on Tuesday, I wanted to share it with everyone. They say it is better to give than to receive, and Sharon Bell and PepsiAmericas Corporation know how to give unconditionally.

Sharon came into Wheaton Cosmetic Dentistry on Tuesday glowing. I wanted to know what she was so happy about and she told us about the day she spent with a group of seniors in their shared home provided by Senior Home Sharing, Inc. She had breakfast and lunch with these wonderfully active seniors, and enjoyed her time with them. They seemed to have more energy than Sharon had imagined.

Sharon told us about the 100 days of giving and the African American Employee Resource Group Community Outreach Committee that sponsored this volunteer event. It is wonderful that a corporation like Pepsi and their employees give back to America at least 100 days per year. I am sure there are other corporations that give back to communities, but to see the glow on Sharon's face, THAT was priceless. Thank you Sharon for donating your time through PepsiAmericas. Your smile said it all on Tuesday.
