Giving Back to the Valparaiso Community
At Dunes Dental Studio, we believe that healthy smiles go hand-in-hand with healthy communities. That’s why we’ve partnered with Girls on the Run of Northwest Indiana — a nonprofit that inspires young girls to be joyful, confident, and strong through physical activity, mentorship, and connection.
Empowering the Next Generation — One Smile at a Time
For every new patient who joins our practice, a portion of their visit goes directly toward supporting Girls on the Run. This incredible organization helps girls build resilience, self-worth, and lifelong skills — all through the power of movement and meaningful mentorship.
Whether they’re crossing the finish line at a 5K or overcoming everyday challenges, Girls on the Run gives young girls the tools they need to believe in themselves. We’re honored to be part of their journey.

Why It Matters to Us
As a female-led dental practice, the mission of Girls on the Run resonates deeply with our values. We’re passionate about helping people feel confident in their smiles — and just as passionate about helping young girls feel confident in who they are.
This partnership allows us to create a ripple effect of positivity in Valparaiso and beyond, and it gives every patient an opportunity to contribute to something meaningful just by coming in for care.

How You Can Get Involved
Looking for ways to support this amazing cause beyond your dental visits? Consider:
- Donating directly to Girls on the Run

Together, we can help shape a stronger, healthier, and more confident future for the girls in our community.
