Thanks to everyone who participated in this year’s candy buy-back program. We had a great turn out this year bringing in around 500 pounds of candy between our office location and the ISLA drop off. We were able to beat and surpass last year’s total of 200 pounds.
Our candy was packaged up and shipped today to Operation Gratitude and is currently on the way to the troops! This year alone, Operation Gratitude has shipped 700,869 packages to troops and their family members. Click here to view more ways to give back to the troops!

Did you hear that we are doing the Halloween Candy Buy-Back two days this year? This will be Shamblott Family Dentistry’s 3rd year participating in the event. The candy buy-back program is an event organized by Operation Gratitude. Operation Gratitude sends care packages to the U.S. military troops that are deployed overseas. Along with helping the deployed members of the military, Operation Gratitude also sends care packages to the wounded warriors and veterans and the children whose parents are being deployed.
This year Shamblott Family Dentistry will be collecting Halloween candy for the candy buy-back program on Tuesday, November 1st and Wednesday, November 2nd from 3-7 p.m. at our office. For each pound of candy that is donated we will give $1.00 cash(up to 5 pounds)! The candy buy back is a great way to save your teeth and give back to others.
Do you know anyone who is a student at ISLA (International Spanish Language Academy)? This year we will also have a drop off location at ISLA for any ISLA students. The ISLA drop off will take place on the same dates and times as our office drop off. Please help us spread the word of this great event! We would love to beat last year’s total of 200 pounds!
We are proud to announce that we are now an official Toys for Tots drop off location! Stop by our office anytime to make a donation.
Please help us make the holdidays happy for many less fortunate children. You can drop off any unwrapped toys at our office starting now until December 18th, 2010.
