2024 Presentation to Dental Students with Volunteer Interest

Lori Zoghby, Jo-Marie Maniwang, Bob Barnes and Mick Pope did a hour long presentation to interested dental students at VCU SoD. This was allowed by VCU due of the educational information about what an international volunteer project accomplishes and how it functions. Having had our last Virginia students participate pre-COVID, we weren’t sure how much interest or awareness students might have in the Jamaica Dental Project … and seeing how they could volunteer. About 15 to 20 students attended of all DDS and DH students levels. I know we presenters had a fun time … and we did get about 12 names and email addresses of interested students. We hope to get the student presence on our teams solidly in place once again.
