During COVID lockdowns, many dental offices closed permanently. While other dental professionals locked their doors for the final time, Rob Dinker’s Integrity Dental Services expanded. In just 2 years, his practice has grown to over 100 employees. How? Integrity and a genuine heart.
Dinker has always been aware that life for some people just is not fair. Not everyone has the pleasure of growing up in a two-parent household, access to quality education or what some may refer to as the basics. Dinker wants to change that; he wants to help even the playing field, or at least minimize the obstacles. He founded a nonprofit, the Rob Dinker Foundation, 2 years ago to focus on unhoused children and families and young scholars who may have an incarcerated parent or a parent that due to working multiple jobs may not have the luxury of spending the time needed to guide their children.
The Rob Dinker Foundation donated money to a local charter school to help build a safer updated playground and donated meals and school supplies to over 400 local scholars. In 2021, the organization paid rent for 10 families of sole-parent households who were the winners of an essay/letter campaign.
This year, the goal is to partner with other community advocates like restaurants to feed the unhoused and host a back-to-school drive complete with a DJ, face painting and bookbags filled with everything a young student will need to hit the ground running.
Want to help? The foundation wants to know who they can help next. Connect with them online at DinkerFoundation.org to recommend someone who could benefit from the service this organization offers.
“To give real service, you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that’s sincerity and integrity,” says Rob.
The Rob Dinker Foundation seeks to lend a helping hand to children and families in need, especially the socio-economically challenged. The foundation participates in efforts to encourage educational success, mitigate the effects of poverty, and aid in the mission to decrease the number of children who experience homelessness.
Goals and Focus
The Dinker Foundation is laser-focused on helping those who are in need. They are deeply committed to helping students, children in need, families, and distressed parents.
