The Smile Foundation

The Smile Foundation is a registered Section 21 non-profit organisation that was established in 2000 at the request of our Chief Patron, Mr Nelson Mandela.

The primary focus of the Smile Foundation is to address the medical backlog in the public healthcare system in dealing with children who suffer from treatable facial abnormalities such as Cleft Lip and Palate, burn victims, Moebius syndrome (facial paralysis) and other conditions.

Our organisation is completely reliant on donor funding. We currently have a number of children awaiting surgical interventions; however, without support these children cannot receive the gift of a smile.

Your involvement and support can ensure that assistance is provided immediately. Your donation will be utilized to assist children with facial deformities get the surgery they need, as well as ensure that they receive pre and post-operative counselling, assistance with transportation, follow up treatments etc.

Your contribution will change a child’s future forever! Please visit our website and donate today!
