Oral Health America, a nonprofit organization that has been dedicated to improving oral health for all Americans for more than 50 years, will be holding its 18th Annual Gala Dinner and Silent Auction on February 21, 2008, at Navy Pier in Chicago. The event will raise funds to support educational and service programs designed to improve oral health.

Oral Health America is also seeking event sponsors at the Gold ($2,500), Platinum ($5,000), and Diamond ($10,000) levels.

Tickets are $275 each; a table for 10 can be purchased for $2,400. To reserve tickets or to get information on sponsorships or donations, e-mail Joe Donohue at [email protected].
