The Team of Aug, 2019
Let's start! Borderless Dentists in Aug, 2019.
Sometimes we are family (fathers and daughters !?). And we speak English, Cantonese, Spanish, Japanese.. sometimes Burmese, Thai..!? But we are the ONE!
We visited 5 schools. BLSO, Heavenly Home, New Society, New Wave and New Blood school. Teachers are very friendly and we took some photos with principal, all teachers and all students. All together with "Hand Heart" !! Thank you for smiling!

The Team of Aug, 2018
Four volunteers joined to the program in Aug, 2018. They came from Holland, Spain and Hong Kong. We worked together about one week by giving dental treatment to four schools, visiting around border area and observing one facility. Our teamwork was so great even though we just met each other for the first time.
Although the activities were not extensive, we would like to value our connection with each others, and cherish the communications. The experiences in our volunteer program can be read
by the below PDF.
