SMILE, a facial expression in which the eyes brighten and the corners of the mouth curve slightly upward. We all love to have our best appearance when we “SMILE BACK” at someone. That’s what inspired me to start the “SMILE BACK” club at my high school so my friends and other students could get involved in this great cause-- giving back a smile. Fundraising done via SMILE BACK club will be contributed to the Smile Train organization, an international children’s charity with a sustainable approach to a single, solvable problem: cleft lip and palate.
Many children with clefts around the world live in isolation, but more importantly, have difficulty eating, breathing, hearing, and speaking. Cleft surgery is simple, and the transformation is immediate. Smile Train’s sustainable model provides training, funding, and resources to empower local doctors in 70+ countries to provide 100%-free cleft surgery and comprehensive cleft care in their own communities.
