Sharing Smiles International

Our Cleft Lip and Palate Program provides free surgeries and promotes a multidisciplinary team approach to ensure patient follow-up.

Making world-class cleft and dental care free and accessible in select countries across Latin America by delivering quality care, exchanging best practices and innovations, and fostering sustainable partnerships. Sharing Smiles volunteer surgical teams comprised of plastic surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, technicians and others, travel to partner sites to provide reconstructive surgery and hop

e to children who would otherwise grow up with the physical and emotional distress caused by these facial deformities. Our Pediatric Therapy Program seeks to establish a formal local network that will support our partner institutions to care for children in need of physical, occupational and speech therapy. Our teams deliver individualized care plans for patients and trains local staff and volunteers to provide ongoing physical therapy and support. We form partnerships in Spanish and English speaking countries in Latin America and the Caribbean that lead to sustainable pediatric care. Our key partners include: local ministries of health, hospitals/children’s homes, medical professionals, business and community leaders and Rotary International.

Somewhere in Mexico, Peru, or Bolivia, the next World Cup hero is practicing in the backyard right now. Our job? Making sure nothing holds back that champion's smile.

💙 Meet Colonel Paul Farineau, US Army Nurse Corps — one of the incredible volunteers who's given his time to Sharing Smiles. From 2016 to 2018, Paul joined our mission trips to Tarapoto, Peru, serving on a 20-person team in the recovery room. His favorite moment? Watching parents walk in after their child's cleft surgery — often not recognizing them at first glance, then breaking into joy as it sinks in. "That event brought a smile to me every time I would see their reaction."
