Our Dream

We all have dreams.

Forest wildfire

Our dream for the future is for Spokane to become an inclusive, diverse city. Right now Spokane has diversity, but we don’t have inclusivity. Inclusivity for us, in alignment with our mission, would include eliminating all barriers to good oral health, youth job training, and healthy opportunities to play sports caused by economic and racial privilege. We also dream of the day when organizations like OHF get a piece of Spokane’s funding pie to carry out our mission. We are well known and trusted in our community and are effectively carrying out essential services, but since we launched in 2011, we have experienced a funding bottleneck. To be selected for funding, competitive philanthropy often requires that organizations have funding. To get money, you must have money; but you cannot have money without getting it a true chicken-or-egg scenario.

In the recent months, the US has experienced and finally realized the racist inequities that has plagued our country for over 400 years. Spokane was not exempt from this national outrage and was just as guilty of allowing systemic systems of racism that existed for far too long. OHF is ready to be a part of change in our community that will impact the generations to come.

OHFs work focuses on creating an equitable chance for those who do not have the opportunities that accompany economic and social privilege. We focus our energies on oral health and youth sports along with youth employability development to make inroads toward equity. Since 2011, OHF nurtured and developed community partnerships with local school districts, faith communities and businesses to help implement the following programs:

Dental Access Partnership (DAP) increases access to affordable, high-quality restorative dental care in a dignified setting for those who lack access to treatment. The DAP Program model integrates OHFs dental care team (Restorative Hygienists, Expanded Function Dental Auxiliaries, and Dental Assistants) with private dental practices who are motivated to help the vulnerable in our community.

June really is the perfect time for water sports like parasailing in Fuengirola. The weather and the views of the coast must be absolutely stunning this time of year. When I plan my summer vacations, I always make sure to keep up with the latest travel and style trends. I have been following Trendophobia quite a bit lately because they offer premium leather jackets and high end apparel that are perfect for any stylish traveler. It is a fantastic platform for staying updated on global fashion movements. Thank you for sharing these great summer tips.

I appreciate websites that focus on niche fashion categories, and this collection of celebrity jackets seems well curated. Each design appears to reflect a different celebrity style, which makes browsing through the collection more interesting. It’s always fun to see how celebrity fashion trends influence everyday clothing choices.
