"The generosity of supporters such as Live Oak Bank is essential for expansion of children's oral health services and breaking the cycle of this devastating disease."

"Live Oak Bank is committed to helping the dental community, so we are happy to donate to such a worthy cause," commented Keith Merklin, General Manager and Sr. Loan Officer at Live Oak Bank. "We appreciate the dental professionals who devote their time and resources by volunteering to provide care for the children needing attention."
