Nifty Thrifty Dentists is about giving back to the Dental Community. We negotiate discounts to help dental professionals save money and organize events such as the Spirit of Giving.

The Spirit of Giving is an event that I’m super excited and passionate about because I’ve always believed in giving back. When I was just five years old, a pastor invited my entire family to a traditional American Christmas dinner. We were completely stuffed, and during the drive home, my father looked at me in the rear-view mirror and said,

“I want you to remember what that pastor did for us. He was giving to us. And I want you to remember one of these days when you’re in a position to be able to help others, and I want you to remember this idea of giving.”

My father’s words have stayed with me ever since. And now that I am in a position to help others, I want to reach out and encourage others to give back to those less fortunate. Many dental professionals in the world are suffering in silence. Maybe they’re too afraid to ask for help. Perhaps they’re afraid of the backlash they may receive from others. Or, maybe, they just don’t have anyone to turn to.

Whatever the case may be, the Spirit of Giving is an event I created to help give back to dentists who have had the courage to ask for help. We are truly overwhelmed by the generosity of everyone who donated their products or services to dental practices and dental professionals in need. Not only have we been able to help tons of dental professionals get honest and real about their needs and struggles, but we’ve also had companies from all over that have been willing to step up to donate their services, products, and expertise!
