I created my Smile Fund to raise money for Operation Smile – a global medical nonprofit organization that provides free surgeries for children around the world born with cleft lip, cleft palate and other facial deformities.
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 me bring hope and new smiles to children suffering from facial deformities by supporting my fundraising goal?
Not only can we, a Brebeuf Jesuit community and a privileged group of students, parents and faculty focused on serving men and women for others, donate but this mission and goal reaches all walks of life and people from all over central Indiana. This is not only mu goal, but it is every person who donates, shares or even talks about it with others'.
For as little as $240 and in as few as 45 minutes, Operation Smile can provide life-changing surgery – and renewed hope – for children around the world. Please, consider donating anything from $5 to $100. Absolutely everything makes a difference to these children.
