Community Dental Care Initiative with Unilever Egypt: Impacting Health and Education

As part of our commitment to social responsibility and Egypt’s Vision 2030, our Faculty collaborated with Unilever Egypt to organize a dental care convoy to underserved communities. This initiative not only aligns with our strategic goals but also supports Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in multiple ways:

  • SDG #3 – Good Health and Well-being: By offering essential dental care and education to 106 patients in need, we support improved health outcomes for children and adults in areas with limited access to medical services. This ensures healthy lives and promotes well-being for all ages, recognizing the importance of oral health on general health.
  • SDG #4 – Quality Education: Our educational sessions, which covered proper tooth brushing, healthy eating habits, and tooth decay awareness, directly contribute to enhancing health education quality among students and community members.
  • SDG #17 – Partnerships for the Goals: Through our collaboration with Unilever Egypt (Signal), we demonstrate the impact of strategic partnerships in sustainable development.

This convoy served as a crucial support to the community, providing services that range from dental diagnosis and treatment to essential oral health education. Each patient received a Signal toothbrush and toothpaste, reinforcing long-term health practices.
