The holiday season is all about sharing joy — and we’re inviting our patients and community to join us once again in giving back to those who need it most.
This year, Ellicott Mills Dental is hosting TWO community drives to support local Howard County organizations that make a real difference:
November Food Drive:
Benefiting the Community Action Council of Howard County
Help local families by donating non-perishable food items to our office collection box between November 1–30.
December General Donation Drive
Benefiting Grassroots Crisis Intervention Center.
During December, we’ll be collecting new or gently used coats, hats, gloves, and household or toiletry items to help individuals and families in crisis.
Win a Smile-Worthy Prize!
To show our appreciation for your generosity, everyone who donates will be entered into a drawing to win one of these prizes:
- At-Home Professional Whitening Kit or
- An Oral-B Electric Toothbrush
We’ll select one winner in November and another in December!
Donating online instead? Simply email or bring in your donation receipt to be entered into the drawing.
Together, we can help brighten the holidays — and a few smiles — across Howard County.
Let’s make this season one of gratitude, generosity, and great smiles. 💛

About These Wonderful Organizations
We resolve to meet our community’s needs quickly, strategically, thoughtfully, and always with compassion. We strive to actualize opportunities within reach of the families we serve. By layering our five critical services of early childhood education, energy assistance, food assistance, housing assistance, and weatherization assistance, we guide a family from crisis to stability and ultimately to self-sufficiency. This can help create a pathway through and out poverty or just provide a hand up when one is needed. No matter who seeks our services or why, our priority is always Howard County families’ long-term stability.

Grassroots provides 24-hour access to quality behavioral health, crisis intervention and homeless services to individual and family consumers in need. These are families, individuals and children who find themselves without a place to sleep. These are co-workers, schoolmates, friends and even family who may be contemplating suicide. These are members of the community who are experiencing a crisis and are seeking help, crisis intervention counseling, and sometimes a roof over their heads. We are a free, 24-hour resource serving children, adults and families throughout Central Maryland.
