Nonprofit Dental Aid provides crucial care to children in need

When hurricanes devastated the Virgin Islands last year, John and his wife were forced to move themselves and their two children from their island home to Boulder. They had to relocate after their rental home had its roof torn off and its windows blown out. Dental Aid, Inc. Address: 1285 Centaur Village Drive, #200, Lafayette, CO In operation since: 1974 Number of employees: 36 Annual budget: $3.3 million Percentage of funds that goes directly to client services: 86% Number served last year: 7,124 (3,183 were children) The move has been a major adjustment, but the family has found comfort in at least one area of their life thanks to Dental Aid Inc., a Boulder County nonprofit that provides affordable dental care to those who are uninsured or otherwise unable to afford it. One recent morning, his 6-year-old son, Gage, had a new crown installed by a Dental Aid dentist.
