Henry Schein named recipient of HKC's Corporate Leader Award

Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ: HSIC), the world's largest provider of health care products and services to office-based dental, animal health and medical practitioners, announced today that it has been selected as the recipient of the Corporate Leader Award of the Henry Kaufmann Campgrounds (HKC). HKC is a beneficiary agency of UJA-Federation of New York (UJA-Federation) and home to 16 Jewish day camps operated by Jewish Community Centers in the greater New York area. Henry Schein was honored on June 10 at HKC's Annual One Camp Community Celebration held at Citi Field in New York City, and sponsored by David Katz, President of the Henry Kaufmann Campgrounds and Partner of the New York Mets.

The Company was recognized for its commitment to community outreach through its donation of oral health care products, including toothbrushes, toothpaste and dental floss, in support of HKC's 2015 Act of Kindness project. These donated products will be used to create thousands of personal health kits, which will be provided to nearly 3,600 underserved children on Long Island through UJA-Federation's Supplies for Success program, which for 14 years has ensured that children without means, from kindergarten through 12^th grade, return to the classroom with new book bags containing age-appropriate supplies. The personal health kits will be assembled by HKC's campers during an assembly-and-pack drive and will be added to the backpacks. Established by UJA-Federation's Long Island's Connections division in 2001, Supplies for Success helps more than 10,000 children belonging to UJA-Federation beneficiary agencies, schools, shelters and other local organizations each year.

"Henry Schein is honored to be recognized by the Henry Kaufmann Campgrounds, which offers children wonderful recreational experiences, a welcoming environment and instills the values of respect for others, community, family, and helping those in need -- all values that our Company shares," said Michael S. Ettinger, Henry Schein's Senior Vice President of Corporate & Legal Affairs, who accepted the award on the Company's behalf. "Henry Schein's support of HKC's Act of Kindness Project reflects our commitment to community outreach and corporate social responsibility through Henry Schein Cares – our Company's global corporate social responsibility program – through which we expand access to care for underserved populations. We look forward to continuing to work with the Henry Kaufmann Campgrounds on initiatives like HKC's Act of Kindness program, Supplies for Success, and other meaningful outreach endeavors."

Henry Schein has a long history of supporting programs to help children return to the classroom prepared to succeed. In addition to its support of HKC's Act of Kindness project and UJA-Federation's Supplies for Success initiative, since 1998 Henry Schein has held its annual "Back to School" program, which has benefited more than 27,000 underserved children since the program's inception. Through "Back to School," a flagship initiative of Henry Schein Cares, children at many participating Company locations receive school essentials ranging from new first-day outfits that are personally selected and paid for by Team Schein Members, to backpacks filled with classroom supplies, books and hygiene products. Each year, Henry Schein partners with local social service organizations to help identify children and families who would benefit from participation in the "Back to School" program. "Back to School" is also supported by the Henry Schein Cares Foundation, Inc., a 501(c)(3) organization that works to help increase access to health care in underserved communities around the world.

"We are delighted to honor Henry Schein with our Corporate Leader Award," said Mr. Katz. "The Company's generous donation provides the foundation for each camp to corral their communities to donate additional products to create the personal health kits. Because of Henry Schein's generosity, HKC is able to coordinate its first ever camp-wide project that will encompass 3,600 campers from New York City, Long Island and Rockland and Westchester counties."

Rosemarie Klipper, a Henry Kaufmann Campgrounds Board Member, presented the award to Mr. Ettinger. "This is a wonderful opportunity to inspire our young generation of campers to be kind. Thanks to Henry Schein's support of programs like these, the Henry Kaufmann Campgrounds can live up to our mission of enhancing the day camp experience and integrating Jewish values such as 'tikkun olam,' repairing the world, into campers' experiences, helping them understand that it is up to each one of them to do their part to help those who are less fortunate."
