I have a coworker that went through some very scary years as a meth addict. He has been clean for over four years. He cleaned up and got a job when his little boy was born. He is such a wonderful father, and a hard worker. His problem. After the son was born, his wife left him for another addict. He is a single father, and does not date, because his teeth have gone so bad from the drug abuse, he fears no one would have him. He does not earn much (approx. $8.00/hr) and does not have dental insurance. Does anyone know how to go about getting him some help? His teeth are causing health issues and he wants to look better so his son will not be embarrassed by him.
You might try to contact your state medical and dental school. I heard that sometimes the dental students will do work for free, and I'm sure no one would look down on him. It might be better if you made the calls for your friend, who might get easily discouraged if he doesn't get positive results immediately.

Someone told me this could be on an interview I have coming up? What should I say?
Say you would do the job of whatever the job is that you are applying for.
The question is an old career finding tools. What ever you would answer to the question is was you should do for your career. Example(if you would build wood furniture, you should be a wood worker) etc

I am trying to plan a dodgeball tournament at a park for this spring. I am in the process of planning it, i.e. getting a location and such. I am wondering what is the best way to get companies in my city to donate money to our cause (either autism or prostate cancer). Should i just go door to door and explain it, should I go door to door and just leave a typed out sheet, should I email shops?
