Need help thinking of a name for a volunteer health class for the homeless

[jordansx]

Hi everyone. I'm currently a student at UNLV and a friend and I started an organization to teach the women at the local homeless shelter on health related topics.

I'm pre-dental and my friend is pre-med and we thought this would be a perfect opportunity to get the university students involved for a good cause. We've just started and our first session was on dental hygiene. We had 18 women total and they voiced to us that there was definitely a big need for this type of class. It was so rewarding to see how happy and thankful they were.

This was our first flier that I made:

I came up with the name REACH (Reaching, Encouraging, and Advocating Changes for Hope). But we ran into a problem and we received a letter from another organization called REACH that trains employees at the casinos we have here. So we desperately need a new name.

I had my friends and family rack their brains with little to no results. So I've decided to ask prime. I really hope you guys can help and any suggestions and/or ideas are greatly appreciated.

We were fortunate enough to get a generous donation from a dentist to help us get started. Here are a couple more pictures.

Our next class is this Saturday and heres the flier thats currently up at the shelter. (I know it looks like crap. I forgot my DSLR at home and had to use my partners point and shoot :redface

Thanks again for any help that you guys can provide. We really do appreciate it.

If you're non profit, can another company really say anything? It's not even the same industry.

I'll try to think of some too. Do you want it directed towards women or is there a possibility to open this up to men in need as well?

We might open this up to men as well in the future. Thanks again everyone.

But those are great! I'm sure paula will like them. I'll foward it to her now.

Anyone else have anything?

Or any combination of the above. Example: Dignity, Respect and Encouragement through Affirmative Medicine.

How about HMO (Homeless Medical Organization)?

Here you are promoting a great cause, while I'm checking out the hot chick in the pic and thinking of acronyms that include "bum", "breath" and "stink".

:tongue:

I like Vegas' idea of using SMILE.
