If you hate Halloween candy as much as me...

SWS halloween buyback 2013 Halloween Candy Buy Back Program
If you have any candy leftover this Halloween Season, check out the Halloween Candy Buy Back Program.  The program benefits children who need dental care, hygiene supplies and food services.  Once the candy is collected, it is sent to those deployed by the U.S. military.  Its easy and its a great cause!  Plus it gives you and your gamily a great excuse to not eat the leftovers!

How does the program work?

  • Participating dentists “buy” back kids’ Halloween candy at a scheduled event.
  • The dentists “buy” the candy with cash, coupons, toothbrushes,  and other creative exchanges.  They can partner with local businesses to give away coupons for food, services, goods, etc.  They can give away Hygiene Kits or set up an Opportunity Prize.
  • Each kid gets a ticket per pound of candy for an opportunity drawing to win special prizes, etc.
  • Dentists then send the candy to Operation Gratitude or other Military support groups that ship the candy  to U.S. Military deployed in harm’s way.
