This week was filled with Give Kids a Smile (GKAS) Day and ASDOH alumni reunion activities. Friday, February 17 over 400 children came to ASDOH to receive free dental care and enjoy time at booths filled with games and educational experiences. ASDOH had over 500 volunteers including ASDOH students, graduates, local businesses and neighboring educational institutions.

After the GKAS event, ASDOH hosted an alumni celebration honoring the 10-year reunion of 2007 alumni and the 5-year reunion of 2012. Other graduates participated as a number of alumni were recognized for their leadership and community service after graduating from ASDOH. Saturday, ASDOH provided continuing education courses for those alums who attended the reunion.
