Henry Schein hosts Holiday Cheer for Children program

More than 1,000 children will see their holiday wishes come true this year through Henry Schein's Holiday Cheer for Children program.

For the past 13 years, Schein team members have volunteered for the program by sponsoring individual children and contributing their own time and money to ensure that each child's holiday wishes come true. Clothing, toys, games, and other gifts are presented to participating children and their families at special holiday celebrations held at multiple Henry Schein locations.

Henry Schein's largest annual Holiday Cheer for Children event recently took place at the company's headquarters in Melville, NY, where Schein team members sponsored more than 570 area children this year. The celebration included a special dinner, chocolate fountain, cotton candy machine, Santa and Mrs. Claus, music, and other games and festivities.

Each year, Henry Schein partners with local social service organizations to help identify children and families for participation in the Holiday Cheer for Children program.
