IRVINE, Calif.—Pacific Dental Services (PDS), a dental support organization, announced its recognition of National Volunteer Week (April 16-22, 2023). The week celebrates the selflessness of individuals who generously donate their time, money, and skills to create a better world. As part of its commitment to giving back to communities, PDS was proud to join in the celebration and honor volunteers for their tireless efforts.

In 2006, the organization established its Corporate Social Responsibility and Service department, an internal team that engages PDS team members in acts of service year-round. Furthermore, team members are given the opportunity to participate in volunteer work in their local communities on paid time.

Last week, PDS team members participated in various charitable activities in Dallas, Texas, Henderson, Nev. and Irvine, Calif. Apart from local service, PDS also provides opportunities for its team members to participate in international service trips. These trips allow PDS-supported clinicians and team members to lend a helping hand to individuals who lack access to care and create a positive impact around the world.

Also last week, a team of 10 PDS team members and supported clinicians generously offered their time to travel to Xenacoj, Guatemala with the Pacific Dental Services Foundation.The team provided oral health care services to the local and neighboring communities at the PDS Foundation Clínica Denta. Through the collective efforts of the team, over 90 patients were able to receive access to critical oral health care, with a total of $101,579 worth of donated dentistry provided.
