KENNEWICK — The student members of the Columbia Basin Dental Hygiene Society will be holding a pancake breakfast fundraiser from 7:30 to 10 a.m. Saturday at Applebee’s on Columbia Center Boulevard.

Tickets are $7 each, or four for $25. Money raised will support student activities and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the CBC Foundation Dental Hygiene Patient Fund, a fund created to provide dental care for patients who are unemployed, uninsured and cannot afford dental care.

These patients are first seen at Grace Clinic before their dental care is completed at the Columbia Basin College Dental Hygiene Clinic in Pasco.

For children, a special appearance by the Tooth Fairy and photo opportunity is planned.

Tickets may be purchased by calling the CBC Dental Hygiene Clinic at 542-4571.
