CANDY FOR A CAUSE:<br />
ANNUAL HALLOWEEN CANDY BUY-<br />
BACK PROGRAM AT SEVEN LAKES<br />
FAMILY DENTISTRY<br />
Children Give Back to Troops, Donate<br />
Candy to Operation Gratitude!<br />
Taking candy from children is usually<br />
frowned upon, but teaching kids<br />
the value of giving back by donating<br />
their excess Halloween candy in<br />
support of US troops, veterans, and<br />
fi rst responders is a win-win for kids,<br />
parents, and dentists alike.<br />
This Halloween, local trick-or-treaters<br />
will join kids across the nation when<br />
they bring their Halloween candy and<br />
handwritten letters of gratitude to<br />
Seven Lakes Family Dentistry.<br />
The goodies will be shipped to<br />
Operation Gratitude for inclusion in<br />
over 300,000 care packages to US<br />
Service Members deployed overseas<br />
in harm’s way and to fi rst responders<br />
serving here at home.<br />
As a sign of appreciation for their donation,<br />
Dr. Jennifer Massey of Seven<br />
Lakes Family Dentistry will pay the<br />
children $1/pound of candy donated<br />
(up to $5) and give each child a<br />
dental health goody bag.<br />
Paper and markers will be provided<br />
to write letters or drawings to send<br />
with the candy to Service Members.<br />
The buy-back program will be held<br />
at Dr Massey’s offi ce on Thursday<br />
November 1 from 1-4pm at 1064-B<br />
Seven Lakes Drive.<br />
Dr. Massey is proud to have served<br />
the dental health needs of the community<br />
since 2002.<br />
She has participated 8 years in the<br />
Halloween Candy Buy-Back Program<br />
to reduce excess sugar consumption,<br />
prevent dental decay, and teach<br />
children the importance of saying<br />
“thank you” to those who serve.<br />
Global sugar consumption for children<br />
increases by about 2% annually<br />
and currently sits at 50 million tons<br />
per year, which means parents need<br />
to be sure their kids teeth are being<br />
cared for more than ever.<br />
Dr. Massey works hard to raise public<br />
awareness of the benefi ts of healthy<br />
eating and great dental hygiene. For<br />
