Your compassion is what creates a new chance at life for the child, the family, and the community at large.
Sharing Smiles, Transforming Lives
OUR MISSION
All over the world children born with cleft lip and palate anomalies suffer physically and emotionally. They may become malnourished and are prone to ear infections and hearing loss. Often times, they experience upper-respiratory problems or speech and dental difficulties; most need multiple operations. They commonly endure isolation and ridicule. Sometimes they are abused, abandoned or killed. Access to surgical care is usually scarce or unaffordable.
Alliance for Smiles offers children and families with cleft anomalies hope for a bright future. We work to repair children’s broken smiles by providing free, comprehensive cleft treatment, in under-served areas of the world – transforming their lives forever.
You Can Help! Donate.
