Welcome to Joycie Smiles

Joyce's children, Peter, Jeri and Kim created Joyce's Smile Fund to raise money for Operation Smile – a global medical nonprofit organization that was near and dear to Joyce's heart, which provides free surgeries for children around the world born with cleft lip, cleft palate and other facial deformities.

Joyce lived to make others smile. And with your contribution (big or small) you can help continue her mission. Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft lip or cleft palate – and many families can't afford the surgery they desperately need. In many places, children with cleft conditions are abandoned or abused. Many times they have trouble eating and drinking and can struggle to survive. Those that do can face a lifetime of shame and torment.

They need our help.

Will you help to bring hope and new smiles to children suffering from facial deformities by supporting our fundraising goal? Please, consider making your tax-deductible gift today, in loving memory of our mother, Joyce.

Welcome to My Smile Fund

Page updated successfully!

I had the great opportunity to bike through Malawi last year and I fell in love with the children. I saw many kids being bullied because of their cleft lips, and many don’t go to school. I hope to raise awareness and funds for Operation Smile so that no child ever gets bullied for their facial deformity.

Please spread the word about my Smile Fund. I will be biking from New York to Virginia for two weeks to raise money for Operation Smile. I will share pictures and stories on this page!

Please donate to my Smile Fund -- anything you can give is a huge help.
