Lemonade Stand

Forest Trail participated in a lemonade stand to help raise awareness/ donations for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

The mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion, or a family's ability to pay. We raised a little over $240 in donations in July 2023. It is important to our team that we continue to be engaged in the community and provide what we can to help give back. It means even more to us that our amazing patients here at Forest Trail, always love to participate and help our office make a difference in the community.

Food Donation

Forest Trail participated in a food donation fundraiser to help gather donations for Food For Families.

November 2023 Forest Trail partnered with "Helping Hand Ministry" in Belton TX to help raise food for our local food pantry. The " Food For Families" drive is a community project supported by KWTX (news station), HEB, Operation Feeding Temple, Baylor Scott & White and many local organizations. This was the first year Forest Trail participated in this specific event, and we plan to make this an annual event. It was very rewarding to see so many businesses and organizations in the community dropping off their donations when we were there. Our patients helped the office collect over 276 lbs. of food.

School Supplies

Forest Trail partnered with Lighthouse Family Network for back to school!

Lighthouse Family Network is a local Christian foster care agency in Salado, TX. For the past three years Forest Trail collected school supplies/donations and would take them to several elementary schools in the community. Summer of 2023 Forest Trail partnered with Lighthouse Family Network for the first-time for "Back to school". It meant so much to the team at Forest Trail to see how many patients brought in donations and supplies, so we were able to get the kiddos ready for another year of success.

Dental Health Month

National Children’s Dental Health Month
  • February is National Children’s Dental Health Month
  • February 2024 our hygienists Kristian and Marina went to educate a pre k class on early oral health.
  • The kids had an amazing time listening and engaging in conversation and activities. 
  • Kristian and Marina modeled how to brush teeth and for how long while using our office dragon. 
  • The kiddos colored food items that are healthy and unhealthy for the teeth and matched them to a healthy and unhealthy tooth. 
  • It is very important for children who start brushing and flossing from a young age are less likely to suffer from dental decay and gum disease later in life. Additionally, good oral health habits can help children develop healthy habits in other areas of their lives.
