Braydich Dental recently announced that it raised $10,500 through its annual Smile for a Cause event to support children and teens with autism.
The fundraiser, which ran from March 1 to June 30, saw the dental office donate all proceeds from the sale of custom teeth whitening kits and whitening gels.
“Smile for a Cause is more than just a fundraiser; it’s a way for our patients and community to get involved and support local organizations that are changing lives,” said Dr. Rudy Braydich, co-owner of Braydich Dental.
The funds raised were donated to the Youngstown-based nonprofit, the Ridge Autism Center, which provides specialized education and therapy services to children and teens with autism.
“Braydich Dental’s generous donation will help us expand our service capabilities and provide a safe and inspiring environment for even more children and teens,” said Jack Ellis, the center’s community engagement and events coordinator.
