Alexis Parlapiano Student Ambassador 2020

I have decided to fundraise for Smile Train to help give smiles to children in need. Smile Train is an international children’s charity with a sustainable approach to a single, solvable problem: cleft lip and palate.Millions of children with clefts around the world live in isolation, but more importantly, have difficulty eating, breathing, hearing, and speaking. Cleft repair surgery is simple, and the transformation is immediate. Smile Train’s sustainable model provides training, funding, and resources to empower local doctors in 85+ countries to provide 100%-free cleft repair surgery and comprehensive cleft care in their own communities.

With your help, we can save these children and give them the life-changing surgery they both need and deserve.

Thank you for supporting my fundraiser with Smile Train – together we can change the world one smile at a time!
