Celebrating 10 Years of the Kara Smiles Fund!

If you had asked me 10 years ago if I thought this would be possible, I probably would have said, “I don’t know.” Since then, I’ve watched Moebius syndrome awareness grow, and my smile has changed my life and the way I see this journey.

Living with Moebius syndrome hasn’t always been easy, but I’ve always hoped that if I could help others the way I’ve been helped, I would. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity and the support of my family, my community, the Shannon family at work, and some pretty amazing friends.

Please join me for our Annual Moebius Syndrome Awareness Fun Run/Walk! Family, friends, and all ages are welcome. Choose the 1-mile, 5K, or 10K.
