Dr. Madeline Ginzburg
Usually, when a child receives a tube of
toothpaste as a present from a stranger,
it’s not much cause for excitement.
Thanks to Madeline Ginzburg, DMD,
that’s not the case at the Life and Hope
Association Orphanage in Siem Reap,
Cambodia.

Hard economic times affect everyone. Financial uncertainty and rampant unemployment urge us
to be cautious in our daily lives. Whatever care we are forced to take, it pales in comparison to
the mother who is unable to feed her child or lacks the water and health care to sustain her child’
s life. Imagine those at the bottom rung of the global economic ladder, the poor who always
suffer the most. They must depend upon the global community to achieve solutions to meet their
most basic human needs. Hope was not an option for many, until Kageno and a New York City
dentist stepped in.
Kageno, in Dholuo, a Kenyan dialect, means “A Place of Hope.” Dr. Frank Andolino is an
orthodontist and the co-founder and executive director of Kageno Worldwide Inc., a not-for-
profit international philanthropy that works in developing country communities. “Kageno’s
mission,” explains Dr. Andolinio, “is to transform communities suffering from inhumane poverty
into places of opportunity and hope.” Learn more about Dr. Andolino and Kageno.
