they did it!
They did it!!!!
I am so proud of Moody's patients! They donated over 5,000 of their hard earned wooden nickels to build a well in Ethiopia. Because of their generous spirit- hundreds of Ethiopians will have access to safe, clean drinking water!
Each appointment his patients have the opportunity to earn up to 4 nickels. If they are on time, wear their t-shirt, have good dental hygeine, etc. They can save these nickels to earn various items- Target gift cards, TOMS shoes gift certificate, video games, webkins, spa certificates. Moody wanted to build a well with Charity:Water and give his patients the opportunity to participate if they wanted to- and participate they did! They could place their nickels in a large water jug and forgo getting an item for themselves. Once 5,000 nickels were raised, the office would give a $1 per nickel and pay for the well. He said it was the sweetest sound to be working on a patient and hear the clinck, clinck of nickels being dropped into the jug!
Way to go to everyone that played a part!

Ohhhh! That is just awesome!!! What a neat idea too...SOOO cool!
I LOVE that! I might mention that to my son's orthodontist. Kids are so generous and I think it's great to give them an opportunity to make those decisions.
now that is just flat out cool...
what a great idea, what a great cause and what great kids!!
that's amazing! what an incredible gift...and something we totally take for granted. your family is incredibly intentional
I wish we had a dentist/ortho around here with Moody's heart for the orphan...he'd have all our business...and we have lots of crooked teeth :) so awesome, kj
I LOVE it! I am already thinking of a way that my husband's company can do their part to help build a well!!! You've really inspired me to help start something!
This is awesome! Love it!
WAY TO GO!!!! I LOVE it! There is a reason why God loves the heart of a child.
so GREAT!!! Thank you for giving the opportunity to all! and changing the lives of so many!!!
Woohoo!!! Way to go!!!! So proud to play a part. God is just plain good isn't He?
This was a GREAT idea! It was fun for the kids to get their Charity Water bracelets in the mail too!
AWESOME!!!!!!
