INTRODUCTION 
As mandated by the department during last meeting to chair the WOHD committee, I am presenting this as my proposal and budget of the 2023 WOHD program. There are some specified headlines which serves as guidelines to how a WOHD event should be celebrated. These headlines includes community outreach, presentations, rallies of oral health education and promotion etc. Looking the available resources of human capital, financial ability, infrastructure and equipments.

- Its an opportunity to officially recall all our past students making up a mini DHS Alumni reunion event while the students help in these procedures. (This will be the first of its kind in the college) Dental always come first everywhere.✊?
- Our current students will get the most important experiences for their journey in dental therapy profession and therefore giving them a live insight of how the profession practically looks like. 
- It'll recharge the college communities and DHS staffs of their practical and community engagement duties.

- The history of dental therapy profession, DTRBN, NDTA and their functions by Malam Suleiman Aliyu

- HOD's special round table with (Selected) staffs, current students and former students.
- Prophet Muhammad SAW is the first oral health educator. 
by any renowned Sheikh. If its not feasible, I highly recommend Abdullahi Bello Bunza. *This lecture should call the attention of the entire college community and even outsiders.

DRESS CODE 
T Shirts and Face caps

BUDGET
If 500,000 to 700,000 naira can cover expenses (without T shirts and face caps)
Source
- Each student should be mandated to contribute towards accomplishment of this event. 
200 less priviledge will be treated free off charge. For the fact that the students are already dental students, the WOHD requires their participation and contribution. 
- With the number of patients we're targetting to treat in a program that'll be celebrated worldwide, also the first of its kind in the history of the college, the management, director and even other staffs of the college will happily make a generous donation to support this program. 

CONCLUSION
This proposal is a sample of how a community program can be achieved. All it requires is the willingness to do it. I believe we have more than enough man power, infrastructure, equipments, instruments and finance ability to do even better than this.
