20/20 Story of Poverty in Appalachia

I am trying to spread the word on a story I saw on 20/20 about a poverty stricken community in Central Kentucky. I know there is poverty all over the place but this particular story, of families in our own back yard, who don't have homes, food, dental care and more, struck me as so devastating I thought I would try to do something to help. If you have not seen the story I have included the link.

My first goal is to collect dental supplies: toothpaste, dental floss, toothbrushes, etc. If you want to help collect dental supplies let me know. I am calling local dental practices as well to see if they will help out this cause. Thanks in advance!
