The U.S. population includes an estimated 50 million food-insecure persons.
An estimated 1 in 5 children live in a food-insecure household. Our nation has developed a robust network of well over 60,000 locations that distribute food at no cost to food-insecure persons.
Dr. Branam is intimately familiar with the oral health practices and problems of food-insecure families, especially children. Families who seek out food banks usually cannot afford professional dental care. It is the aim of the Foundation to provide free-of-charge toothpaste and toothbrushes to these persons through food banks.
This distribution will be available to the entire family and will benefit the entire family. Only fluoride-free products are to be distributed.
