Give Kids a Smile – Volunteer Event

February 21, 2026 • 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Join the South Plains District Dental Society for our annual Give Kids a Smile event! This community-focused day provides free dental screenings, oral health education, and fun activities for children — and we need the support of our local dental professionals to make it a success.

Volunteer as a Dentist

We’re looking for volunteer dentists to provide screenings throughout the event.
Choose a shift that works best for your schedule:

  • 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

  • 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM

  • Other (custom availability)
    If your schedule doesn’t fit the two-hour blocks, simply select “Other” when signing up and we’ll work with you.

Host a Booth

Dental offices that donate to the event will have the opportunity to host a booth.
This is a great way to:

  • Share oral health resources

  • Provide kid-friendly activities

  • Showcase your practice’s commitment to community care

A minimum $100 donation is required in order to host a booth. Please be sure to complete your donation after submitting your form for the booth.
