This free event will provide essential dental care to children and teens from underserved communities in South and East Los Angeles. Event Details: Date: October 19th, 2024 Time: 8:00 AM – 3:30 PM Location: 414 N. Camden Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 Suite 1200 Open to: Youth ages 6-24 The Youth Dental Clinic is a continuation of the foundation's mission to address critical dental health disparities by offering free comprehensive dental services, including exams, cleanings, fillings, preventive treatments, and oral hygiene education. The clinic is staffed by licensed dental professionals volunteering their time and skills to ensure each child receives quality care in a welcoming environment. Making a Lasting Impact: In communities where dental care is often inaccessible, untreated dental issues can lead to pain, infection, and long-term health problems. Poor oral health is not only linked to chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections but can also affect children’s ability to eat, speak, and concentrate in school. Over time, untreated cavities and gum disease can lead to more severe infections, tooth loss, and significant emotional and psychological impacts, including low self-esteem and social withdrawal. By organizing regular youth dental clinics, the foundation is working to prevent these outcomes, ensuring that children receive the care they need to stay healthy and confident, one smile at a time. The foundation is proud to partner with several organizations dedicated to improving the lives of young people, including the Boy's & Girl's Club of San Gabriel Valley, Brianna Rose Institute, Department of Youth & Family Services, Give Mentor Love, and UCLA School of Dentistry. Through this collaboration, UCLA student doctors work alongside experienced doctors, gaining valuable hands-on experience while providing care to youth and young adults. How to Get Involved: The Giving a Smile Foundation encourages the community to support this vital cause. Volunteers, including dental professionals and administrative staff, are welcome to join the clinic. Additionally, the foundation is accepting donations to help fund future clinics and expand their outreach. About the Founders Dr. Rodney Raanan and Dr. Justin Raanan, brothers and co-founders of the Giving a Smile Foundation, come from an immigrant family deeply rooted in a legacy of service and giving back to the community. Their family’s journey, shaped by resilience and hard work, instilled in them the belief that success is measured not only by personal achievement but by the impact they have on others, particularly those less fortunate. This generational spirit of compassion and commitment to serving others has been a driving force in their lives. Dr. Rodney Raanan is an acclaimed prosthodontist known for his expertise in advanced restorative dentistry. He has been recognized for his ability to restore complex dental cases and help patients regain both functionality and confidence in their smiles. His dedication to the Giving a Smile Foundation is fueled by his desire to extend these benefits to children and young adults who might otherwise lack access to such critical care. Dr. Justin Raanan, a highly respected periodontist, specializes in gum health and the prevention of oral diseases. His work focuses on improving overall oral health, which directly impacts the well-being of individuals. Through the foundation, Dr. Justin ensures that youth in underserved communities receive the same quality care as his private patients. He’s driven by the understanding that untreated dental issues can cause long-term physical, emotional, and financial burdens, and he strives to prevent this by offering care and education to families who need it most. Together, the Raanan brothers combine their exceptional skills in dentistry with a shared vision of giving back. Their work through the Giving a Smile Foundation is not just about treatment but about empowering underserved youth with the tools and education to maintain long-term oral health. For them, it’s about creating a ripple effect—each smile they restore has the potential to transform lives, boost self-esteem, and open doors for future opportunities. Their deep connection to their immigrant roots and their belief in the power of service guide their mission. The Giving a Smile Foundation reflects their commitment to making top-tier dental care available to every child, regardless of their background, and ensuring that no one is left behind when it comes to health and well-being.   Media Contact: Kuliema Blueford Director Giving a Smile Foundation Phone: (310) 205-5311 Email: [email protected] Website: GivingASmile.org         Our mission is to help all Los Angeles children and young adults gain access to preventative dental care to keep their teeth and gums healthy.

Founded by brothers Dr. Rodney Raanan and Dr. Justin Raanan, the foundation was inspired by their own upbringing. As the sons of immigrant parents, they grew up understanding what it means to go without. They saw how hard their parents worked and how difficult it was for others to access even basic care. Those early experiences shaped their commitment to serve others. Since launching, the foundation has provided care to more than 3,000 children- and we’re just getting started. The need is great, but so is the potential. We're inviting volunteers, supporters, and community partners to help us expand this work. Together, we can create a future where every child has a reason to smile.  “ Drs. Rodney and Justin Raanan don’t measure their success by how much they earn but rather by the number of young lives they are able to touch.  They demonstrate this by volunteering and dedicating their money, time, and talent to help improve the lives of the most vulnerable populations in our community. ”    -Kuliema Blueford, Board of Directors      Join Our Mission Giving A Smile Foundation Our Mission Events Get Involved Make a Donation Donor Privacy Statement Giving A Smile Foundation 11859 Wilshire Blvd. Suite 520 Los Angeles, CA 90025 310.205.5311 [email protected] Giving A Smile Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, #EIN 82-0642002 Giving A Smile Foundation 0 Skip to Content About Us Meet the Founders Our Mission Press Partnerships Events Gallery Get Involved Gala Financials Shop for a Cause Make a Donation Open Menu Close Menu About Us Meet the Founders Our Mission Press Partnerships Events Gallery Get Involved Gala Financials Shop for a Cause Make a Donation Open Menu Close Menu Folder: About Us Back Meet the Founders Our Mission Press Partnerships Events Gallery Get Involved Gala Financials Shop for a Cause Make a Donation Providing quality dental services for youth in need.
