Our Hospice Concert includes raffle for dental services
The 30th annual Our Hospice Concert featuring Peter Cetera with opening band, LemonWheel, drew over 8,000 people to Mill Race Park in Columbus in early September to celebrate 30 Years of Music in the Park.
The concert, designated as an official bicentennial legacy event, demonstrated the generosity of the community which helped Our Hospice exceed the year’s fundraising goal.
Increased raffle ticket sales helped make this the best year ever as the Concert raised $120,000 in net revenue, exceeding the $100,000 goal.
Sixty-three Greenwood-area residents obtained free dental services from Honey Grove Family Dentistry on Sept. 24 for the office’s Free Dentistry Day.
Dr. Christina Popoviciu and team provided free oral health care to the community. The day is a program aimed at providing dental care to Americans without dental insurance.
The doctors and team members provided over $25,700 worth of dentistry including cleanings, extractions and fillings to local people throughout the day.
For more information about the office or to schedule an appointment, call 317-882-8000 or visit honeygrovefamilydentistry.com.
