Orthodontist, Dr. Ron Cohen is finally able to award a young boy his computer for doing a good deed for someone else in his community. Ten year-old Holy Cross Elementary School student Andrew Travis, from Grabill, Indiana, helped an older woman with an oxygen tank load groceries into her car because “she looked like she was struggling,” says Andrew.

Dr. Cohen launched the Good Deed Contest in February of this year, and ended on May 13, 2011. The contest was open to any youth 18 years of age and under. Children 18 or under were urged to enroll in the Good Deed Contest by submitting an essay about a good deed they have accomplished.

“We all know that negativity will not improve a situation, but complimenting or rewarding a job well done will actually prompt more of those good activities,” explains Dr. Cohen.  Rather than only focusing on the bad that continues to occur, he hoped that by making a bigger deal of these good deeds, more young children would be excited to go out there and commit random acts of kindness.

According to Dr. Cohen, “we all have a vested interest in providing a stable foundation of moral values to our youngsters.  We believe that children deserve a helping hand in making their own choice between what is right or wrong.  To make their own choice of how to reach their goals without compromising their morals is something we want to focus on.”

Dr. Cohen believes there is no greater joy for a parent than knowing that their children are on the right path. He presented the winner of the Good Deed Contest, 10-year-old Andrew Travis from Grabill, Indiana, his well-deserved laptop this past Tuesday, June 07, 2011 at 4:45 p.m. Dr. Cohen hopes that Andrew will still be motivated to continue to make the right choices in life, and we look forward to the impact that his kind nature has on others in his community.

People helping people have been one of the prominent strengths of our country. During these hard economic times, the spirit of giving and helping is needed more than ever.

Orthodontist Dr. Ron Cohen organized a Food Drive this summer that is putting smiles on the faces of some needy families in his community. Dr. Cohen, in an effort to give back to the community, is promoting a special, $250 off on Full Orthodontics Treatment, $150 of which will be donated to Community Harvest Food Bank. The special also includes FREE Exam and Necessary X-rays with affordable payment plans.

The special is designed to help people who, because of the economy, may have lost their insurance or not have the funds to pay for an orthodontic visit.

Dr. Cohen was inspired to produce this community effort after reading a report in the New York Times about how an increasing number of Americans are going hungry.

“We will be conducting similar specials periodically throughout the year to help the less fortunate in our community,” explains Dr. Cohen.

This special incentive which benefits the less fortunate of Fort Wayne and surrounding communities will expire on September 30.

Orthodontist Dr. Ron Cohen is leading an anti tooth-decay movement by giving away dollars in exchange for candy. This Halloween, trick-or-treaters can bring their excess candy to Dr. Cohen’s office in Fort Wayne and receive $1 per pound.

“Kids can still have all of the fun of trick or-treating, and now their piggy banks will benefit as well,” says Dr. Cohen.

We all know that children love candy, but eating candy is hurting children’s teeth and may lead to hyperactivity and weight gain. In some cases, the wrong types of candy can also lead to broken teeth and damaged braces.

Dr. Cohen is sponsoring the Halloween Candy Buy Back from November 1-3 and children can drop off their candy at his office, Cohen Orthodontics, 10211 Dupont Circle Drive, Ste A, Fort Wayne, IN 46825. Call for drop-off time.

Dr. Cohen adds, “We will be conducting similar events in Fort Wayne and surrounding areas periodically throughout the year to help the less fortunate in our community.”
