We broke a record last week - nearly 300 employees joined us in the Bay Area for our biggest Employee Appreciation celebration yet! Swipe to see the fun 🙂

From the photo booth moments to the packed room full of smiles, it was a great reminder of the culture we get to be part of every day.

A huge thank you to Vivian Le and the SmileMakers who made this happen - and to every employee who showed up! 💚

Last month, our People Org volunteers got to work assembling 1,584 dental kits for the Southside Coalition of Community Health Centers in South Los Angeles.

The Southside Coalition operates across 45+ community and school-based clinics and serves nearly 250,000 residents each year, making it the largest community clinic safety net in the region. We are glad these kits will go directly to the people and families they serve.

A big thank you to Christina Valtierra for organizing this event! 💚

This Valentine’s season, we shared the love with our neighbors at the Curry Senior Center in SF. 💕

Our team came together to create handmade Valentine’s cards to brighten the day of seniors in our community. A little creativity and a few kind words can go a long way in spreading joy and connection.

Thank you to all of our volunteers, and a special shoutout to Beth Muzzy for helping organize this event!

“Dr. King’s legacy reminds us that meaningful change begins with the courage to show up for one another.”

Last week, Delta Dental employees from our Inclusion Community, ABLE, honored MLK Day by volunteering at Food Pantry Fridays with Another Chance of Atlanta,Inc. Another Chance of Atlanta provides housing and support to homeless Veterans, men and women in need of stability and care.

Led by Product Manager Kristen Jones, the group came together around a shared purpose: serving the community through genuine engagement, collective action, and service rooted in inclusion.

“It’s about translating commitments into action and building trust through service,” Kristen shared.
