Trinity Dental Clinic produces enough funds almost every month from the tiny fees that it charges its patients to cover almost all of its monthly expenses- staff salaries, utilities, administrative fees, and minor repairs and maintenance. We see this as a small miracle, as our fees are less than $3 U.S. for an extraction or a filling, and only $30 for a root canal to save a front tooth. This means that gifts to Trinity Dental will contribute almost entirely to materials, pharmaceuticals, and equipment used to treat the Liberian people. We will utilize about $50,000 in subsidy every year to provide treatment. On-going Partners The population of Liberia live on average about $1 per day. It is currently impossible therefore for each one to cover the cost of their treatment. Even with no dentists' salaries, most dental materials and supplies are only available from and priced by the American and European market, and the lack of electricity in Liberia means high prices for utilities. For this reason, TDC relies on private donations to help provide treatment to the Liberian people at a price anyone can afford. Donations in excess of our operational costs will invest in the future of Trinity Dental Clinic to provide training and internship of dental professionals, helping with the massive needs of Liberia and West Africa. |
