Smile Train

Many charities focus on many different aspects of life, health, hunger, housing. Sometimes you find a charity that has one single problem to solve. SmileTrain.org fits that bill.

Smile Train is all about repairing cleft lips and palates the world over. In face, Smile Train helps children in 77 of the world’s poorest countries.

Many children with cleft palate damage cannot eat or speak properly. They can’t attend school to learn, or hold a job. These kids grow up to face a life filled with shame, hiding their faces.

Every single solitary child born with a cleft can be helped with surgery. This surgery can cost as little as $250 (USD) and takes around an hour to repair.

Smile Train’s objective is to provide free cleft repair surgery for millions of poor children and to provide free training for medical professional.

Smile Train is a worth charity. We suggest you visit their website at smiletrain.org to learn more.

    Your post reminds me of when I was a boy growing up in Georgia. My grandpa used to say “When life give you lemons, make lemonade”. But he was a hopeless alcoholic who never made much sense so I never paid much attention to him. Have a great day!
