Operation Smile

Have you heard of Operation Smile?  I hadn’t until this spring, at least, I hadn’t really paid attention to what I had heard.

 

So who is Operation Smile?

a charity organization healing children's smiles

a mobilized force of caring, medical professionals

provide safe, effective reconstructive surgery for children born with facial deformities

I was reading further on their website to see how money sent to Operation Smile is used to help children internationally.

Your gifts transform lives

• $240 provides a surgery!

• any extra $$ go to helping partner countries to treat more children on their own

• donations send out the volunteers who are desperately needed

Your gifts help us teach and train healthcare professionals

• the Physicians' Training Program (PTP) brings doctors and nurses from around the world to the USA for advanced training

Your gifts build awareness and leadership

• 700 student clubs help to raise awareness, do fundraising and educate others

• The World Care Program brings patients to better hospitals for complicated surgeries.

 

What a great organization doing a great work in the world!

 

I love to see my children smile.  What joy this organization can bring to other mothers with your help, and the help of supports like CampusBookRentals.
