OBHP GRANTS CRITERIA AND TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Oral-B Health Program: Our Vision
The vision of the Oral-B Health Program is to enable every Australian to achieve a
healthier mouth through better access to dental services, education and proven
performing products.
Oral-B Health Program: Our Focus Area
In its inaugural year, the Oral-B Health Program is focused on dedicating this support
to children, particularly those living in regional areas in disadvantaged circumstances,
to help improve oral health outcomes.
During the 2010/ 2011 financial year, donations from Procter & Gamble Australia Pty
Ltd ABN 91 008 396 245’ ("Procter & Gamble") for the Oral-B Health Program will
be used to fund a grants program for children in regional areas to access much needed
dental services. This is being operated through Barnardos Australia ABN 18 068 55
7906 ("Barnardos") with the assistance of volunteer paediatric dentists.
Oral-B Health Program: Grants Criteria
The Oral-B Health Program provides small grants (up to $3000.00 per grant) ("OralB Health Program Grant" or "Grant") to Australian based community groups who
apply on behalf of a disadvantaged child requiring access to dental services, with the
assistance of Barnardos and volunteer paediatric dentists.
There is no set criteria against the type of dental work that can be funded by an OralB Health Program Grant. It is up to the discretion of a qualified dentist as to what the
child requires. Those children in the greatest need will be considered first; and we
will be guided by the following:
•
•
•
•
Children who have a history of infection or swelling (one or multiple teeth)
Children with dental anomalies eg. supernumerary tooth
Special needs and medically compromised patients
Children whose treatment can only be adequately completed under general
anaesthesia
The decision on who receives an Oral-B Health Program Grant rests solely with
Barnardos.
Only children between the ages of 0-16 living in regional areas are eligible to be
nominated for a Grant. Regional areas are defined as outside of major capital cities.
All Grant nominations for dental work must be accompanied by:
•
•
A referral from a qualified dentist outlining the work required
A cost estimate on the funding required to undertake the work (less any dentist
professional fees)
Page 7 of 11
•
•
•
In the event that the cost estimate of the dental work to be conducted exceeds
$3,000 ("Grant Limit"), evidence to the satisfaction of Procter & Gamble and
Barnardos that all amounts exceeding the Grant Limit have been obtained.
A copy of the nominating community group’s public liability insurance and
approved Not For Profit status, and
All other information reasonably requested by Procter & Gamble or Barnardos.
The Oral-B Health Program Grants are operated and administered by Barnardos.
Paediatric dentists are volunteering their time to perform the dental work. The Grant
will cover the costs of materials and other costs involved in having the dental work
done (excluding the usual costs of dental fees that would normally be charged by the
participating dentists). If in the event that a paediatric dentist does not volunteer in
time, the grant will also be used to cover the cost of the dentist.
Organisations applying for an Oral-B Health Program Grant must be a not-for-profit
community group, and hold current public liability insurance cover of minimum $10m.
Individuals can not apply. They must apply through a community group (who satisfies
the requirements as stated in the above paragraph).
Applications open on 20 January 2011 and close on last receipted online application
at midnight on 31 March 2011 ("Grant Period").
Applications will only be accepted online at www.oralb.com.au during the Grant
Period.
Once approved, a Grant Agreement is to be signed by the Community Group’s
authorised signatories and returned to Barnardos prior to monies being EFT’d to the
group’s bank account.
General Terms and Conditions:
Information on how to apply & information in relation to the Grant form part of these
Terms & Conditions. Participating in this Grant is deemed to be acceptance of these
Terms & Conditions and the Grant will be provided in accordance with and subject to
these Terms & Conditions.
While we would like to be able to assist all disadvantaged children with their dental
health needs, we have a limited pool of funds available and as such need to apply the
following limitations and terms and conditions.
