Meet the Buddies Nominate Sponsor Dental Providers

Step one

Nominate a buddy

Tell us about someone who needs dental treatment and cannot afford it. It can be a family member, a colleague, a neighbour, an employee, or yourself.

About you

Email

About your buddy

Name and surname

City/Town

Province

Why do they need dental assistance?

Tell us about their situation, how it affects daily life, and what has stopped them getting treatment.

Campaign photo

A portrait or campaign photo for the nominee's story page.

Photos of the dental issue (optional)

Optional. Add photos one at a time that show the problem they are experiencing.

I confirm the person nominated knows about this nomination and consents to their story being reviewed, and possibly shared, by Bek-a-Buddy in accordance with the Nominee / Patient Consent & POPIA Authorisation.

What happens next

1. On the list. Nominations are shared with partner dental providers, who choose people they are able to assist. Demand is likely to exceed what they can take on, so not every nomination will be selected.
2. Assessment. If a provider selects your buddy, they examine them and prepare a costed plan.
3. Publication. With consent, their story and funding goal go live for sponsors.
4. Treatment. Once funded, treatment begins and sponsors are kept updated.

Dignity first

No one is published without their consent. Buddies choose how much of their story to share, and may use a first name only.
