Happy Tuesday everyone!
I thought I'd take a minute today and write about a very worthwhile organization that is dear to my heart:
(From their website:)
Operation Smile is an international children's medical charity that heals children's smiles, forever changing their lives.
As a children’s charity, we measure ourselves by the joy we see on
all of the faces we help. At Operation Smile, we're more than a charity.
More than an NGO. We're a mobilized force of medical professionals and
caring hearts who provide safe, effective reconstructive surgery for
children born with facial deformities such as cleft lip and cleft
palate.
Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft — often unable to
eat, speak, socialize or smile. In some places these children are
shunned and rejected. And in too many cases, their parents can't afford
to give them the surgeries they need to live a normal life.
That's where we come in as an international charity providing much
needed surgical services. Since 1982, Operation Smile — through the help
of dedicated medical volunteers — has provided more than 2 million
patient evaluations and over 200,000 free surgeries for children and
young adults born with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial
deformities.
As one of the most prominent children’s charities in the world and
with a presence in over 60 countries, we are able to heal children’s
smiles and bring hope for a better future.
Thanks to the generosity and spirit of volunteerism shown by our
supporters, we heal thousands of children per year. With your help, how
many lives can we change tomorrow?
For years I've wondered how I could help these children who are born with cleft palates. Being a mother myself, I have a passion for children's charities {I have been a volunteer at many different children's organizations}
and Operation Smile is one of the best ones out there!
With our help, Operation Smile can provide the surgeries needed to make these children's lives better. After all, what makes a person happier than giving a big smile?
