Donate your Extra Halloween Candy to the Troops

A Sweet Way to Make Everyone Smile:
The Halloween Candy Buy-Back Program!

Every kid loves Halloween! So do adults.

As responsible dentists, community members, and US citizens, Halloween Candy Buy Back dentists have found a way to keep the fun, while helping kids and our  troops deployed overseas.

How does the program work?

  • Participating dentists "buy" back kids' Halloween candy at a scheduled event
  • "Buy" with cash, coupons, toothbrushes, creative exchanges - They can partner with local businesses to give away coupons for food, services, goods, etc.  They can give away the Hygiene Kits, they can set up an Opportunity Prize--each kid gets a ticket per pound of candy for an opportunity drawing to win special prizes, etc.
  • Dentists send the candy to Operation Gratitude or other Military support groups
  • Operation Gratitude sends the candy  to U.S. Military deployed in harm's way

Why Join Halloween Candy Buy Back?

  • You'll enjoy peace of mind knowing you’re making kids, parents, and Service Members smile!
  • You'll set a great example for the next generation to give back!
  • You'll also enjoy some great publicity!

100,000 Toothbrush Challenge

Help us send a toothbrush in every troop's care package! For every pound of candy you send to the troops, we hope you will also send a toothbrush! Let's see how quickly we can collect 100,000 toothbrushes!
