Following on footnotes of our beloved founder sir Dr. (Prof). ACHYUTA SAMANTA sir, Kalinga Institute of Dental Sciences launches a Philanthropic initiative KIDSSS EXPRESS. The prime objectives of KIDSSS EXPRESS are:
1. To deliver smiles for special children & underprivileged children across various parts of Odisha.
2. Spiking the confidence levels of Interns and Postgraduates in treatment of special children by constant exposure and gaining experience through these camps.
