UNLV SDM ADEA Miles for Better Smiles A student organized fun run benefiting our financially limited patients at UNLV School of Dental Medicine, by raising funds for needed treatment.

The 7th Annual Miles for Better Smiles 5K Run & Walk
Hosted by ADEA (American Dental Education Association) at UNLV School of Dental Medicine

Date: March 5, 2016
Location: Sunset Park
2601 E Sunset Rd
Las Vegas, NV 89120

The UNLV School of Dental Medicine is excited to announce the 5th annual Miles for Better Smiles 5K Run and 1 Mile Walk to be held at Sunset Park on Saturday, March 5, 2016. Th

e sole purpose of Miles for Better Smiles, a non-profit organization at UNLV School of Dental Medicine, is to provide financial assistance to patients who are unable to afford their treatment here at the school. So far we have raised approximately $40,000 and we hope to continue raising as much money as we possibly can for people in need! Our fundraising event is a 5K run/1 mile walk that we will hold at Sunset Park here in Paradise, Nevada. This will be our seventh year holding the event and it has received a very positive response from students, faculty, and the general public. We typically have 200 people at the event and this year we hope to make it even bigger! Everyone is welcome - We are going to be providing breakfast, and lunch. There will be prizes for our top race winners, and T-shirts with goodie bags for every participant. This year the event will be held on Saturday, March 5, 2016 at Sunset Park, Paradise, Nevada. This event gives students at the UNLV School of Dental Medicine a chance to apply on the behalf of their patients for financial aid to help them with the treatments they need to have a healthy smile. The event is paid for by the Las Vegas student chapter of the American Dental Education Association – this means that 100% of race fees, sponsorships, and donations go to helping patients in need. While we do get a good amount of fund raised from race participation fees, the majority of the funds we raise come from sponsors. We would be honored to have you as a sponsor of our race and our patients will appreciate it too! We always have race banners and flyers with our sponsors' names on them as well as t-shirts for all race participants that feature the names of our sponsors. We need all the support we can get – please help us promote this event so that it can be as successful as possible! If you would like more information or have any questions please feel free to contact our race coordinator, Michelle Farnoush, at [email protected]
