'Like' New LEAP Program Launched in Barrington, Benefit BEF

Jaffe Orthodontics has launched a community outreach program titled LEAP – as in Local Education Advocate and Partner. 

And if you “like” LEAP on Facebook, you’ll raise $5 for the Barrington Education Foundation.

“We have been strongly committed to being a good community partner,” said Jaffe, a well-known orthodontist in Barrington. “Most people who are familiar with our practice know how much we have done and continue to do for local education.”

“Our commitment goes beyond far beyond writing checks, however,” said Jaffe. “Over the past almost five years, we have given countless school presentations, participated in duck races, spelling bees, road races, science fairs, career days, hosted students for job shadowing, and have been an all- around advocate for local education.”

Now Jaffe is taking his commitment to education a step farther with LEAP.

“In the coming months,” he said, “we will not only look to continue our prior efforts, but will also look for new ways to help local education.  We continue to be very passionate about our involvement in the community, and while the LEAP program will certainly continue to develop and evolve, we are very excited about the possibilities.”

To find out more, Jaffe invites you to visit the LEAP page of his website: http://www.jaffeorthodontics.com/in-the-community/what-is-leap.aspx. 

If you are involved with a local education based charity and wish to request funding, please find the sponsorship form on this page. 

In addition, Jaffe said, to jump-start a LEAP Facebook page, he is pledging $5 for every new “like” from now until Sept. 1 to the Barrington Education Foundation -- up to 500 “likes”.
