Atrium Family Dental Helps Increase Literacy Rates in America

November 18, 2014

Filed under: Other — Tags: , , , , , — atriumfamily @ 2:32 pm

The staff at Atrium Family dental recently attended the MGE Management Experts Benefit Dinner on May 30 in St. Petersburg, FL. We were joined by government officials, community leaders, and leading dental professionals to raise money to provide books for the Improving Youth Literacy Campaign in support of the Boys and Girls Clubs and Youth Programs across America.

We love getting involved with amazing and interesting causes and this one really touched our hearts because it increases literacy in children, something that is very important. It’s shocking to discover the literacy rates across the country and the millions of children and families it affects. If we can do just one little thing to help improve reading in children, we’re happy. After all, it helps to bond families, aids in educational learning, and is a great pastime for many.
