Operation Smile Uae

Operation Smile UAE – Changing lives one smile at a time Operation Smile international children’s charity are committed to saving lives and allowing children with clefts to smile properly for the first time. We do this by providing free surgeries and after care to those affected. Since our founding in 1982 we have provided more than free surgeries to children and young adults around the world. Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft. Many of these children live their lives in shame, hiding their faces because of this tragic deformity. Operation Smile was founded on the belief that no child should suffer or die because of a facial deformity. We hold fundraiser events which have helped us to raise much needed funds. We also have a busy program of volunteer recruitment as we credential and mobilise medical volunteers for attending overseas medical missions. In addition to this we have recruited hundreds of volunteers with a wide variety of other expertise to help with every aspect of our organisation. Through the generosity of volunteers and supporters we are able to offer children access to safe, quality surgical care.
