Be the Light that Guides them
out of the Shadows
We believe every child born with a cleft lip or palate deserves exceptional surgical and comprehensive care, no matter where they are born.
Together, we create health that lasts a lifetime.
The Journey to a New Smile
Our comprehensive care covers Nutrition, Surgery, Psychosocial Care, Speech Therapy, Oral Health, Education and Training.
You Make Children Smile
These children, and so many more, received free cleft surgery thanks to the kindness and generosity of caring Canadians like you. Every gift creates a lasting impact in the life of a child.
