Frequently Asked Questions

Does Operation Smile Canada support student clubs?

As Operation Smile Canada continues to grow and evolve, we’ve shifted our approach to student engagement — focusing on flexible, individually or team-led fundraising and awareness activities. We will continue to support your fundraising initiatives, but we will not formally be supporting clubs moving forward.

Do I need permission to host a fundraiser?

We kindly ask that you inform us of your fundraiser. Please download the Fundraising guidelines and application, complete the form and return it to [email protected].

Do I need to be part of a formal club to participate?

Students can take initiative in ways that work best for them. You have the flexibility to create your own fundraising activities and make an impact in a way that fits your interests and schedule. Operation Smile Canada is evolving and will no longer be supporting formal student clubs as we did in the past, but we will continue to support individuals or teams of student fundraisers.
