What you get

  • 🏷️Your name on the Big Mouth for 10 years. On every field-trip photo, every family snapshot, every "Mom, look!"
  • ⭐Founding Organization on permanent signage. You were here first, and it says so.
  • 🎉A Yay Day for NELDA members and their families. The museum, all yours.
  • 🎟️VIP tickets to the Grand Opening party.
  • 🤝A seat at the table on the Ambassador Board Committee.
  • 🔗A link from the museum's website to yours.

What kids get

  • 👄A mouth big enough to climb into. Teeth, tongue and all. Brushing makes a lot more sense once you've sat on the tongue.
  • 🦷Learning by playing. Every tooth they touch is a conversation about taking care of their own.
  • 🏫A place their whole class can come. Field trips are already free for Monroe City, Richwood and Richland public schools.
  • 🏠A permanent home. Not a traveling show. The Big Mouth stays at the new museum for good.

Dentists spend whole careers convincing kids that teeth are worth caring about. The Big Mouth does it in one field trip, and it puts your name on it while it does.
