Valentine’s Day may be over, but the smiles continue! 😁 February is Dental Health Month, and we’re wrapping up the month with tooth-themed activities, hands-on learning, and special programming! 🪥🦷

inspireU Children’s Dental Health Awareness activities are made possible by the family of Dr. H.W. Fricke Jr. and Dr. H.W. Fricke Sr. A big thank you to their family for helping make these engaging learning experiences possible and supporting healthy habits for kids in our community!

Did you know? inspireU participates in the Museums for All Program! 💙

Museums for All is a national, branded access program that encourages individuals of all backgrounds to visit museums regularly and build lifelong museum habits. Museums for All tickets are available to those receiving WIC, SNAP, or EBT benefits. You just need to bring proof of enrollment and photo ID to the Gift Shop Kiosk, where tickets will then be $3 per person. We believe every child deserves the chance to explore, play, and discover, because learning should have no barriers! 😊
