Give Us A Smile

The Smile Train is focused on solving a single problem: cleft lip and palate. The charity’s mission is to provide free cleft surgery for millions of poor children in developing countries, and to provide free cleft-related training for doctors and medical professionals.

Clefts are a major problem in developing countries where there are millions of children who are suffering with unrepaired clefts. Most cannot eat or speak properly, or aren’t allowed to attend school or hold a job. The good news is every single child with a cleft can be helped with surgery that costs as little as $250 and takes as little as 45 minutes.

This video is featured on The Moodie Report, a leading travel retail website which supports the charity.
