Miles For Smiles Toledo
May 2nd, 2009
Dr. Tohme and the entire Toledo Periodontics staff are proud to announce the successful launch of the first annual Miles for Smiles 5K run/walk that took place at Olander Park in Sylvania Ohio on May 2, 2009.
Over 700 participants in the greater Toledo area ran and walked to raise more than $50,000 which will be awarded to the Dental Center of Northwest Ohio, a nonprofit organization that has provided primary oral health services for underserved Northwest Ohio children, adults and seniors since 1910.
The Northwest Ohio dental community along with their extended dental “families” came together for a day of fun, fitness and fundraising to support this worthy cause.
Beth Tronolone, Chariperson of the Owens Community College Dental Hygiene Program writes:
Dr Tohme and friends,
You are a remarkable person and very modest!
Under your great guidance and direction Miles for Smiles was an overwhelming success!
You do your homework and have an amazing talent of finding the most dedicated people to get the job done!
Thank you for your great generosity and dedication to a most worthy cause. This is a very worthwhile program and very fun as well!
