We’re About Putting Smiles on the Faces of Children in South Africa!
The Smile Foundation is dedicated to transforming the lives of children with facial conditions, in South Africa.
The Smile Foundation is a non-profit organisation that brings people together for the purpose of providing expert surgical intervention, creating greater social involvement & enabling sensible corporate-social investment – to make a difference in the lives of children with facial anomalies is our mission in life.
We help children who suffer from treatable facial deformities such as Cleft Lip and Palate, burn victims, Moebius syndrome (facial paralysis) and other conditions.
We are currently based in 11 Academic Hospitals around South Africa. We are investing in the medical teams we work with, through a Skills Development programme, and we assist the hospitals by purchasing equipment for use by the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
To date, we have changed over 1200 lives.
Our Chief Patron Nelson Mandela’s wish is for us to assist as many children around South Africa as possible.
