CLEARCORRECT LAUNCHES NEW PROJECT TO CHANGE THE WORLD—ONE PHASE AT A TIME
Houston, Texas—January
11, 2012—ClearCorrect™, the manufacturer of orthodontic clear aligners (named
America’s fastest-growing health company for 2011 by Inc. magazine), recently
launched Phase Out™, a new project focused on making a
difference.
In a post on the company’s blog, ClearCorrect CEO,
Jarrett Pumphrey, said, “Five years ago, we started ClearCorrect out of a
passion to help. Doctors had no choice in clear aligners, and we wanted to
change that. Since then, we've remained focused on changing the clear aligner
industry. Well, now our ambitions have grown. I’m very happy to announce Phase Out, a new ClearCorrect
project we’re kicking off this year. The purpose of the project: To change the world.”
ClearCorrect’s unique phase-based approach to
clear aligners is at the heart of the project: Every ClearCorrect case includes
a certain number of phases (a phase is a box with 4 sets of clear aligners). More often than not, a few phases are left over at the end
of treatment. Starting January 1, 2012, for each leftover phase, $20 will go
toward phasing out life-impacting issues for people in need.
ClearCorrect is partnering with charity: water
to launch the first of several Phase Out initiatives envisioned for the project: phase out unsafe drinking water.
“It’s unbelievable that nearly a
billion people on the planet still don’t have access to something so basic as clean
drinking water,” says Pumphrey. “charity: water is an incredible organization working
to change that. They have a big job to do, and we want to help them.”
Through Phase Out, every time a phase is left over at the end of ClearCorrect
treatment, $20 will go toward building wells and other water projects in
developing nations with charity: water. One phase = one person with access to
clean, safe drinking water.

About charity: water
charity: water is a non-profit organization bringing clean, safe
drinking water to people in developing nations. 100%of public donations go
directly to fund sustainable water solutions in areas of greatest need. Unsafe
water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80 percent of diseases and kill more
people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Children are
especially vulnerable, as their bodies aren't strong enough to fight diarrhea,
dysentery and other illnesses. Just $20 can give one person access to a clean
water project. Learn more at: www.charitywater.org.
