Delivering American songbook classics\, Broadway tear-jerkers\, and rock goddess anthems\, Storm is a vocalist whose iconoclastic talent defies the laws of nature. \nStorm shot to national prominence in 2006 as a finalist on the CBS show Rock Star: Supernova\, where despite having been eliminated in the week before the finale\, Storm built a fan base that follows her around the world to this day. Storm recently launched her first major release with her new band Le Bonheur\, available worldwide on Heinz Records. Le Bonheur (French for “The Happiness”) draws inspiration from a rich and varied musical tradition; Storm shares her vision of a genre-free world\, collecting songs born of French theatrical chanson\, jazz standard\, heavy metal\, smokehouse lounge\, and a handful of originals\, and stitching them all together into her own singular sonic tapestry to create an unrestrained and impassioned exploration of love\, desire\, and truth. \nNote: A private Zoom link will be emailed to you in the days prior to the event. \n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.allianceforsmiles.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Storm-Large-Promo-Clip-edit-2.mp4\n\nPURCHASE NOW URL:https://www.allianceforsmiles.org/event/live-zoom-concert-plus-q-a/ LOCATION:Odisha CATEGORIES:Event,Fundraiser ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.allianceforsmiles.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/storm-large.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210501T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210501T180000 DTSTAMP:20260423T120332 CREATED:20210311T231534Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210504T163408Z UID:29736-1619888400-1619892000@www.allianceforsmiles.org SUMMARY:17th Annual Night of Smiles "Virtual" Gala DESCRIPTION:See You This Saturday May 1st!\nIf you would like to attend the gala\, please contact Paul Vazquez at paul@allianceforsmiles.org or 415.779.2569 \nThe theme of the gala is the Roaring 20’s\, as we are ready to roar back from this pandemic. Please feel free to wear anything from 20s inspired flapper dresses or suits (if you want to get fancy) to your favorite pajamas or sweats (if you want to be Zoom-casual) – or anything in between.

It is also a crucial part of fundraising to support this continued life-changing work for more children and communities in need. \nOne in ten children born with cleft lip or palate conditions around the world are killed at or shortly after birth due to the condition. Those who survive face manifold health\, mental\, and emotional challenges\, and often suffer abuse and abandonment by their own families and communities. \nWhile this is a highly treatable condition\, requiring an initial surgery that takes about an hour and a half\, children born into places without trained medical teams or who cannot afford the treatment suffer unimaginable consequences. \nThe volunteers and donors who support AfS in its mission make it possible for children all over the world to receive the treatment they need and for local medical teams to receive the training and equipment to build the local capacity to sustainably provide long-term care. \nCOVID brought massive challenges but also fantastic innovations to our work. We had to adapt to changing circumstances and expand our programs to include the remote training of medical teams around the world. This was so successful that it will become a permanent part of our offerings and it was only possible thanks to the continued support of AfS donors and volunteers. None of this is possible without you! \nHow You Can Help!\n\nDONATE NOW!\n\n\n\n\n\nCongratulations to our fabulous 2021 award recipients!\nNan Madden – Volunteer of the Year\nRosemary Welde – Distinguished Service Award\nJean Rosenblum – The John Uth Memorial Award for Significant Financial Support\nJoan and Burt Berry – Children’s Champion Award \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews About Our Auction & Virtual Gala URL:https://www.allianceforsmiles.org/event/17th-annual-night-of-smiles-virtual-gala/ LOCATION:CA\, United States CATEGORIES:17th Annual Gala,Night of Smiles Virtual Gala ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.allianceforsmiles.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/nightofsmiles_feature2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210415T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210501T235900 DTSTAMP:20260423T120332 CREATED:20210415T182620Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210421T195426Z UID:30221-1618473600-1619913540@www.allianceforsmiles.org SUMMARY:2021 Night of Smiles Silent Auction DESCRIPTION:From Tours & Experiences to Fine Wines we’ve got a little bit of everything\, and all donations support life-changing surgeries and medical trainings around the world\, so you can feel extra-good about acquiring some wonderful new items! \nStart Bidding Now URL:https://www.allianceforsmiles.org/event/2021-night-of-smiles-silent-auction/ LOCATION:Odisha ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.allianceforsmiles.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Screen-Shot-2021-04-21-at-12.36.37-PM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20191105T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20191118T170000 DTSTAMP:20260423T120332 CREATED:20190805T165605Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230803T175322Z UID:25687-1572940800-1574096400@www.allianceforsmiles.org SUMMARY:Wenzhou\, China Teaching Mission DESCRIPTION:Stories from Wenzhou\, China\n\n\n\n \n \n 29 Dec\, 20202023-09-28 \n \n \n The Chance to Be ‘Ordinary’jessicaAfS family\, WenzhouRead More1 \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n 18 Jul\, 20192019-07-18 \n \n \n Ley’s JourneyKit RasmussenAfS family\, China\, Smiles\, Story of patient\, WenzhouRead More0 \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n 29 Dec\, 20172018-08-17 \n \n \n We gave him his first birthday party at 5 years.
