TODS Annual Silent Auction Continues!
As part of the TODS ongoing commitment to both the professional and general community, a yearly fundraising activity is held to provide funding to dental and community organizations and charities. Over the past five years the TODS Meeting has hosted a Silent Auction, on the Friday of our meeting which is coordinated by our Chair of Fundraising, Gayle Faigan.
Gayle Faigan is a dedicated volunteer and does an exceptional job of gathering items that are generously donated by the dental community in the Thompson Okanagan Dental Region together with local sponsors and exhibitors that attend the TODS Meeting. Gayle also works with the charity or organization to set up the auction and coordinate the auction on site.
The Thompson Okanagan Dental Society would like to pass along its most sincere congratulations to Gayle Faigan and her team for raising almost $14,700.00 for the four regional community dental clinics in Kamloops, Kelowna, Vernon and Salmon Arm.
