KinderSmile Community Service Learning Program

KinderSmile Community Service Learning Program (CSLP) offers mentoring and guidance to students from high school to college and beyond, to acquire leadership skills, and to share in the mission and goals of KinderSmile Foundation. CSLP members have the option to participate in internships with the Foundation, to help teach children about oral hygiene at KinderSmile Community Oral Health Center, and to volunteer at local health fairs and community events such as Give Kids a Smile Day.

Dedicated CSLP volunteers may elevate their roles within the organization and serve as ambassadors for oral health in New Jersey and abroad. Students become aware of the lack of access to oral health among at-risk children and families, and the impact on their overall health. They gain a greater appreciation for their blessings by visiting under-developed countries in annual service trips to places like Haiti, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and more.

Malika J., a student from Columbia University says “I am grateful for the opportunity and impact KinderSmile Foundation has had on me. The internship has strengthened my determination to become a dentist”.
