Erie is now accepting nominations for the 2011 Golden Toothbrush Awards, being held on Wednesday, May 25, 2011 at The Four Seasons Chicago! This year Erie is thrilled to announce a change in the award process… instead of just one award to honor a leader in community oral health there will be three awards presented on the day of the luncheon: Organization, Individual and Student.
Do you know a dentist helping uninsured people in your community? Or a student volunteering at a school to help kids learn how to brush their teeth correctly? Or an organization making a difference to help those without health care? If you do, nominate them for one of the 2011 Golden Toothbrush Awards to honor them for their commitment to improving the quality of life in our Chicago communities.
To learn more about the process and submit your nomination, fill out the Nomination Form by clicking here!

JOY. It’s a simple word that has a lot of meaning around the holiday season. What I think we can all agree on is there’s something ‘warm and fuzzy’ about this time of year. We all have the desire to experience joy and to bring joy to others. Every dollar you donate to Erie helps bring an extra ounce of joy into the lives of low-income Chicagoans all year round. Consider making a gift to help thousands of patients at Erie Family Health Center.
Your generosity will bring joy to our patients in the months to come. This year, we will serve 38,000 patients- more than ever before. We will build new exam rooms to serve more children and women; launch urgent care services for kids to reduce the burden on our local emergency rooms; train family doctors on-site at Erie so they can learn about the unique needs of the community member we serve; and much more!
Be sure to view a special Joy to Erie video so you can meet some of the thousands of patients you can help by giving a gift today. Joy to Erie = Joy to Erie patients.

While we all know presents are lovely, there are some gifts you can’t pick up at a store downtown Chicago. This holiday season, help your community and bring Joy to Erie by giving the gift of health. You can directly assist members of the Chicago community by making a donation. Every dollar given helps bring an extra ounce of joy into the lives of low-income Chicagoans all year around.
