Post-Covid Volunteerism – A Call to Action

The year 2020 made everyone in the world rethink and reshape how business was done. From the fledging senior dental student still hoping and praying that they have an adequate path of draw to the lead dentist of several state-ofthe-art offices, we all have had to learn how to change and adapt to the new environment. We, as dentists, are the leaders in this aspect as adaptability is certainly our middle name as we have to adapt to literally whomever walks through our door!

With the change and adaptability in mind – District XIII wants to hear from YOU! How can we help you honor the ICD mission of having the opportunity to help serve others? We are looking for individuals willing to serve on a member engagement committee to explore ideas for member involvement that could include such ideas as luncheons, happy hours, or volunteer opportunities in the US or abroad including possible coordination with other service groups. Email the Regent (cyarborough@pacific.edu) or Deputy Regents to express interest
