Host club, Rotary Club of: San Pedro-Curridabat and International partner Rotary Club of Lewisville Morning are preparing a Rotary Foundation Global Grant request to fund a Dental Clinic.The Global Grant will be utilized to outfit a clinic with the necessary medical equipment and supplies (dentist chairs, lamps, x-ray machines, basic instrument, air compressor, sealant) needed to run daily operations. In addition, the Global Grant will fund training of professionals and teaching the community via local schools the importance of good oral health.

Lewisville Morning Rotary Club, along with various clubs in District 5790 (Fort Worth, Denton County and other clubs in Texas) will support this grant. Rotarians, members of Rotaract, Interact and volunteers will participate to help complete the project.
