Colegio San Luís Beltrán is a Catholic school located on the northwast side of Santiago, Chile.  It serves students from Preschool to 12th grade, many of whom come from underprivileged backgrounds and scarce economic resources.  Very few of these students have access to proper medical care.  OHAN will not only help these students improve their dental hygiene, it will also help to raise awareness in their families and communities about the importance of proper oral health care; thus hopefully setting trends and changing the way future generations view dental hygiene.  Thanks to OHAN these students now have the tools and knowledge to better care for themselves and others!
