supporters of the program will be able to post reminders to their friends and followers to volunteer for GKAS and sign up with the ADA Foundation for
their program.
The message posted on Oct. 27 was "Volunteer for Give Kids A Smile. Sign up your program to help
kids in need get the healthy smile they deserve. #GKAS."
Those interested can register for the GKAS program at ADAFoundation.org. The
