By collecting donations from attendees at recent tradeshows (AAE, AACD and CDA), and dedicating a percentage of all show sales to this effort, Discus has sent hundreds of units of BreathRx™ Oral Hygiene Products to Operation Gratitude.
“The extremely arid climates in which our troops serve cause very dry mouths and throats. said Carolyn Blashek, Founder of Operation Gratitude.“As a result, some of the most requested items from our men and women overseas are oral hygiene products. We are delighted that Discus has made such a generous donation to our Armed Forces.”
The donation included a wide range of BreathRx products, including mouth rinse, toothpaste and floss. BreathRx is the #1 dentist-dispensed breath care system - a total hygiene regimen offering superior fresh breath protection in three easy steps - brush, scrape, rinse. All of the products in the BreathRx system are powered by Zytex® and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), a proprietary blend of ingredients designed to eliminate bad breath at the source and neutralize odors. All BreathRx products are 100% alcohol-free and sugar-free.
Operation Gratitude is the California-based non-profit, volunteer-based organization that sends care packages of snacks, entertainment items and personal letters of appreciation addressed to U.S. Service Members deployed in hostile regions such as Iraq and Afghanistan, and on military ships at sea. Its mission is to lift morale, bring a smile to a service member's face and to express to all our Armed Forces the appreciation and support of the American people. Since its inception in March 2003, Operation Gratitude has shipped more than 560,000 packages to American military deployed overseas.
