Tom's of Maine Gives Back
Thursday, January 29, 2009
We absolutely love it when companies accept their social responsible and give back. Tom's of Maine has been giving back for more than 40 years by donating 10% of their profits to charity and allowing employees 5% paid time off to volunteer. This year, Tom's of Maine has launched Dental Health for All, an initiative that brings everyday Americans and local communities together with Tom’s of Maine to help create greater access to dental care for families in need.In this failing economy there are so many families and children in need it is heartwarming that Tom's of Maine is taking active strides to assist people who need help most. We
at The Mom Salon salute them!"It's hard for a parent to imagine not being able to take their child for a routine dental check-up, but for the nearly half of American families without dental insurance or access to dental care this is an unfortunate reality," said Kerry Maguire, D.D.S., M.S.P.H. and Tom's Director of Professional of Advocacy. "It may seem like an overwhelming problem but Tom's of Maine truly believes we can work together to make a difference, one small step at a time."
In January, Tom's of Maine will donate a portion of its sales for all products towards Dental Health for All and will award dental clinics across the country grants for oral health projects in February. With each purchase, families can enjoy their same favorite products or try natural oral care for the first time and have it benefit not only their family but a family in need of dental health.
