Happy National Tooth Fairy Day! ✨🦷 🧚
Today we celebrate little teeth and big smiles — and the importance of healthy ones!

Did you know that many kids still don’t have access to regular dental care? That’s where Project Saving Smiles comes in — a powerful program helping children in the greater Houston area get free dental screenings and oral health education so they can stay pain-free and confident at school and beyond.

Initiated by the American Dental Association (ADA) in 2003, the first Friday in February marks Give Kids a Smile Day!

With the purpose of providing free, high-quality dental services and education to children in need, the Project Saving Smiles (PSS) program aligns with this initiative. PSS partners with greater Houston area school districts by providing free dental screenings to identify and address oral health issues.

According to the ADA “cavities are the most common chronic disease of childhood in the United States”. Give a kid a smile by supporting our programs.

Seventh grade student Juan V. from Pilgrim Academy was the lucky winner of a brand new bicycle through the See to Succeed holiday raffle.

See to Succeed team members delivered the bike to Juan's school and surprised him with it just before the Christmas break. He was ecstatic! Upon receiving the bike, Juan mentioned that he had a bike at one point, but no longer did, and said “I feel like the luckiest kid in the world” .

The bike was generously donated to See to Succeed for the raffle by The University of Houston College of Optometry (UHCO), the American Optometric Association, and CooperVision USA. The UHCO Residents constructed the bike. Many thanks to all who made this possible!

Happy New Year from the Houston Health Foundation! 🎇

12/26/2025

Give children the gift that lasts a lifetime: good health.

Many of our favorite holiday memories were formed in childhood — twinkling lights, shared meals, big dreams, and bright smiles. A feeling of security, comfort and well-being are central to those joyous moments.

At the Houston Health Foundation, we work year-round to make a healthy start in life possible for children and families across our community. Through programs like The Basics Houston, See to Succeed, Project Saving Smiles, My Brother’s Keeper, and Community Family Gardens, we help children grow, learn, see clearly, smile confidently, and thrive - today and for years to come. This year, we have helped over 20,000 children get a healthy start through these programs.

Your year-end gift will help ensure that more children enter the new year healthier, stronger, and ready to create joyful memories of their own.

Make a difference this season. Join us in the spirit of giving by investing in the health of local students — our future. Thank you for being part of our community and our mission. 💙

December is Safe Toys & Gifts Month. 🧸 🎁 ✅

Toddlers and young children learn and make sense of the world through play. That means we all need to ensure their environment and toys are safe and age-appropriate. Educate them on safe play, in age appropriate ways, so their experiences are fun and safe.
