To help other dentists who may be unable to operate their own practice and care for patients, Dr. McCullough and his wife are working with the University of Iowa on an outreach program.

The program will host a fundraiser on Friday at Ankeny (Iowa) First United Methodist Church, featuring live and silent auctions. Attendees can bid on sports memorabilia and autographs from University of Iowa and Iowa State athletes. Professional golfer Zach Johnson also donated various items such as artwork, tickets to sport events and golf outings.
