Last Friday night was Let’s Smile’s 4th annual Let’s Smile, Giggle, and Laugh Fundraising event and I had the wonderful chance to be a part of this fun night.

As you probably know and heard, Let’s Smile put on their fundraising comedy night event this past Friday, and not only did it feature two comedians presenting, but also yummy appetizers, a social hour, and of course a cash bar, and some amazing raffle items.

This year’s performers were Linda Aarons and Tommy Ryman, and not only were they funny, but they are both Minnesota natives! Whoop Whoop!!

There were so many people at Torey’s that night and everyone looked like they were enjoying the event. It was so nice to be able to come and celebrate Let’s Smile and see a community come together for laughs and help one of Owatonna’s amazing non-profits.

If you didn’t know, Holly Jorgensen, Collaborative Dental Hygienist, is the executive director and founder of Let’s Smile, and her love and passion for helping children and low-income families through providing preventive dental care is so heartwarming.

Did you know that for the first THREE YEARS of Let's Smile, Holly essentially worked for free and used her personal vehicle to reach families within the area because her love and passion to provide dental care are so strong?

It really is people like Holly Jorgensen (and her awesome team) that not only make Owatonna an amazing community but the world a better place. This is why Friday was so fun and heartwarming, we were all there to help and say thank you to Holly and her amazing, amazing team.

So, if you made it on Friday, I hope you had fun! And if you didn’t, I’m sure they will have another comedy night next year and I’m sure it will be just as, if not more amazing.
