UPDATE: Ultradent Increases Donation to $300,000 for Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma Relief and Offers Special Discounts to Affected Dentists
September 12, 2017 South Jordan, Utah
UPDATE: In response to the catastrophic devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey and the most recent damage done by Hurricane Irma, Ultradent Products, Inc., has increased the company’s donations to the Saint Bernard Project (SBP) and to the All Hands Volunteers organization from $250,000 to $300,000. The Saint Bernard project will use the funds to aid in the rescue, relief, and rebuilding efforts of all those affected by the storms. The All Hands Volunteers organization will also use the donation funds to help restore and rebuild the communities affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
In addition to these donations, Ultradent is offering to help dentists whose practices have been damaged by the hurricanes. Since Monday, August 28, 2017 Ultradent has offered any dentist whose office has sustained substantial physical damage by Hurricanes Harvey or Irma $500 worth of free consumable product, plus 40% off all consumable products and 15% off all equipment purchases exceeding the initial $500 on that order. Through this offer, Ultradent hopes to provide some aid in the rebuilding efforts of the dental community.
Ultradent’s president, Dirk Jeffs, says, “Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, with their wind and flooding, have caused unprecedented, catastrophic damage in Texas, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, and surrounding islands. Care is an important core value at Ultradent, and we want to extend a helping hand and show our care for the people who have been affected by these devastating storms.”
Ultradent has a strong culture of giving. The company contributed to relief efforts associated with the Pulse Nightclub shooting, Typhoon Haiyan, Hurricane Sandy, and the earthquakes in Haiti and Ecuador. Additionally, Ultradent has donated more than 1.6 million pounds of food over the past nine years to the Utah Food Bank. Ultradent also contributes to various national and international dental humanitarian missions.
