One Billion Acts of Peace Campaign, November 2017

At Vinson Orthodontics, we love making a difference in the lives of others and doing any act of kindness to make someone’s day better. So we joined the ‘One Billion Acts of Peace’ Campaign. The ‘One Billion Acts of Peace’ Campaign is an international global citizens’ movement designed to tackle the most important problems facing our planet.  We started with a simple idea… “Everyone matters. Everyone can make a difference. And together, we are unstoppable.” The Vinson Orthodontics Staff went around to 15 local Fire, Police & EMS Stations and delivered gift baskets. We thanked them for the acts of peace they perform on a daily basis. We also shared with them the Billion Acts of Peace campaign and challenged them to join us!  We would love for our patients to get on board and post their Act of Peace. Together we can make a difference. Check out the link to see what it’s all about! https://www.billionacts.org/ [slider image_set=”50″ show_arrows=”true” arrow_color=”#CECECE” animation=”fade”]
