Youngstown chapter volunteers at the Salvation Army with boxes of donated dental kits.

Brighter Smile Foundation started in Pittsburgh. With four students at Youngstown State University, it opened a Youngstown chapter.

At the first event, McDonald Elementary School, the chapter taught children in grades K–2 about oral care and donated 150 dental kits. Thank you to Chelsea Palmer and the school for the invitation.

Near the holidays, the chapter joined the Salvation Army in Warren, Ohio, which delivers care packages locally. Brighter Smile donated 500 dental hygiene kits and spent a day assembling packages. The kits were packed with Masjid Al-Khair.

The chapter also gave a dental hygiene presentation to Sunday school children at Masjid Al-Khair and donated about 60 kits.
