Operation Smile
In the US, children have free access to surgery for cleft lip, cleft palate, and other facial deformities but this is not true everywhere. Operation Smile is an international charity that provides free surgeries to children around the world and trains local healthcare professionals.
Our KSU chapter has about four fundraisers each semester to give children Smiles that forever change their lives. Check the board outside A-129 for our meeting times, places, and emails. If you are unable to attend the meetings, you can still be involved.
Recently, Kent State undergraduate SPA majors created a fun video to advocate for the professions and those we serve.
