About the Healthy Smiles Program
Since 1994, the Healthy Smiles by Direct Relief has provided free dental treatment to 1,800 low-income, uninsured school-age children with severe need. Sponsored by Healthy Smiles, one-day free clinics are hosted by local dentists and Healthy Start programs throughout Santa Barbara County.
This free-clinic event was hosted by Dr. Samuel Burg and was staffed by volunteer dentists and hygienists who provided dental care and education to over 60 children that day.
Receiving services are low-income, uninsured children identified by their schools as needing professional dental care that they would not have been able to receive without the program.
Additionally, children received Dental Packs – toothbrushes, toothpaste and floss – that were donated by multiple healthcare manufacturers to Direct Relief and packed by volunteers at Direct Relief. For some families, event the cost of a toothbrush is too much and children go without. These donated products ensure that children can continue the good oral hygiene practices they learn during their free clinic visitl.
Each year, Direct Relief distributes approximately 1,000 child dental kits and 3,400 family dental kits (each of which serves a family of five) with donated dental supplies, which Direct Relief then allocates to their local partner agencies. These agencies distribute the dental kits to the low-income children and families whom they already serve

The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.

El 6 de enero próximo comenzará en Viña del Mar, el programa de natación “Actividades Acuáticas Verano 2015”, que tradicionalmente el municipio local, a través de la Casa del Deporte imparte en forma gratuita en diferentes sectores de la comuna.
El lanzamiento oficial de estos exitosos cursos que en los últimos siete años han beneficiado a más de 50 mil personas, lo realizó la alcaldesa Virginia Reginato, durante una ceremonia efectuada en la piscina del Complejo Municipal de Gómez Carreño, y en la que además estuvieron presentes la concejala Mafalda Reginato, el director de la Casa del Deporte, Javier Aravena y el presidente la Junta de Vecinos, Juan Guerrero.
En la oportunidad, la jefa comunal viñamarina procedió a premiar a Rodrigo Silva Cabrera, Constanza Ramírez Gómez, Almendra Armijo Inostroza, y Nicolás Molina Vidal, cuatro jóvenes nadadores pertenecientes a las Escuelas Deportivas Municipales de Buceo y Natación, quienes se han destacado en torneos internacionales, nacionales y regionales.
Además la alcaldesa Virginia Reginato, hizo entrega de la nueva implementación para la realización de los cursos.
Al hacer uso de la palabra, la edil destacó el gran interés que todos los años despierta este programa.
“La importancia de estos cursos se fundamenta en la premisa de lo importante que es para el ser humano saber nadar. Es por esa razón que por décimo año consecutivo hemos querido implementar estas clases, que no tienen otro objetivo que enseñar a nadar a quienes aún no saben, perfeccionar a los que han aprendido con nosotros y fomentar la práctica deportiva en familia a través de la natación, durante los meses de enero y febrero”, señaló la alcaldesa Virginia Reginato.
Javier Aravena, director de la Casa del Deporte, en tanto indicó que “este año a las 5 piscinas que ya están habilitadas, se sumará en la primera quincena de enero la de Miraflores, un moderno recinto que los vecinos del sector podrán disfrutar. Durante los meses de enero y febrero, esperamos que cerca de 15 mil personas asistan a participar en los cursos de natación e hidrogimnasia, como así también a bañarse junto a su familia”.
Agregó que “si bien la entrada es gratuita, la piscina propiamente tal tiene una capacidad máxima de 200 personas”.
El programa “Actividades Acuáticas 2015”, contempla cursos correspondientes a cuatro períodos con tres niveles de aprendizaje distintos, dependiendo del grado de avance del alumno, y de los talleres de Hidrogimnasia para los mayores.
Además los niños y jóvenes que saben nadar y tienen un avance en la técnica podrán integrarse a las selecciones de cada piscina.
Las clases serán impartidas por profesores de Educación Física especializados y se llevarán a cabo a contar del 6 de enero hasta el 28 de febrero inclusive, en las piscinas municipales de: Nueva Aurora, Villa Dulce, Miraflores, Achupallas, Gómez Carreño y Reñaca Alto.
Las fechas de los cursos son las siguientes:
Primer Período: 6 al 17 de enero.
Segundo Período: 20 al 31 de enero
Tercer Período: 3 al 14 de febrero
Cuarto Período: 17 al 28 de febrero
Cabe destacar que entre las 15.00 y las 19.00 horas las piscinas están abiertas a la comunidad, con el objeto que todas las familias puedan disfrutar de ellas, previa inscripción para la obtención de un carné identificatorio.
Este trámite lo interesados podrán realizarlo a contar de este jueves 18 del presente, directamente en la piscina correspondiente a su sector o bien solicitar mayores informaciones en la Casa del Deporte, ubicada en 5 oriente esquina 7 Norte o llamando a los teléfonos 2184674.

On Monday, July 23, 2017, LAFD Chief Ralph Terrazas joined local hospital officials and LAFD Medical Director Dr. Marc Eckstein to launch the expansion of the successful Advanced Provider Response Unit (APRU) program.
Two and a half years after establishing the first APRU pilot program, the LAFD added three new APRUs to its fleet, offering an innovative solution that provides direct, advanced on-scene medical care to patients who may not require immediate transportation to the emergency room.
Thanks to the support and public-private funding from Cedars Sinai, Kaiser Permanente, Providence Health & Services Southern California, and the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, the three new APRUs began serving the communities of Arleta, Hollywood and Pico-Robertson/Mid-City. Later this year, two additional APRUs will begin covering Downtown and Woodland Hills. The new units join an APRU already operating in a large area of Central and South Los Angeles.

I have to admit that I stole that line from Cyko9, it's genius. Also, I feel like I've unintentionally started a theme week of translucent figures--so I'm gonna just roll with it! Transparent figures 'till Christmas, yeah!
