Shining World Compassion Award Recipient-Dr. Jay Grossman of Homeless Not Toothless, Part 1 of 2

Homeless Not Toothless is a non-profit charitable organization. Dr. Grossman and his team of volunteer dental providers have given away free dental care to homeless veterans and civilians alike as well as foster children for nearly three decades. Our Association members in Los Angeles, USA had honor of interviewing Dr. Jay Grossman. “I didn’t want to take care of today, I wanted to take care of tomorrow. So by giving them teeth and getting them out of pain and having them look good so they could interview for a job, and being able to eat and properly nourish themselves, they can now sustain themselves for a lifetime. That’s how Homeless Not Toothless got started.” Through this connection, Dr. Grossman’s Homeless Not Toothless expanded their free dental care services to foster children in the Los Angeles area. “The last 3 years, they've treated over 15,000 kids for free.”
