"If I'm happy, I can smile," said our patient-turned-volunteer, Paola. It is a simple truth, but so powerful to underscore just how critical life-giving surgeries and care are for all our children. Paola says it much better than we can, so we encourage you to watch her share her story:

Your Donation Multiplies Smiles

We have surpassed our one thousand smiles mark and performed over 2,000 cleft palate surgeries and an additional 20,000 dental visits. And we couldn't have done it without you. We are unique in that at our permanent Ensenada clinic, we provide a full range of reconstructive surgeries, specialty care in hearing, speech therapy, dentistry, orthodontia, and even nutrition support. We are committed to providing the very best care for patients and their families throughout their lives at no cost to them.

Your Support Makes a Difference

We are a volunteer-run nonprofit and rely on your generous support to ensure more children receive the care they deserve. While we receive the valuable time of physicians, nurses, Rotarians, and volunteers, your fiscal donations allow us to keep our clinic running smoothly and provide the best care. We are grateful for you and for changing the lives of so many.

We Know You Have Choices

There are many ways to spend your dollars and resources, and we are grateful for your consideration of the Thousand Smiles Foundation as one valuable way to contribute. However, we know circumstances change, and should you need or decide to discontinue your donations, we understand. We genuinely appreciate your support and generosity, and the platform GiveButter has easy ways to cancel anytime by following these instructions: https://help.givebutter.com/en/articles/4529176-how-to-edit-and-manage-your-recurring-donation#h_dd2c4613be.
