sMILES FOUNDATION
We are a non-profit organization run by volunteers whose purpose is to bring hope and draw smiles to as many children as possible in Latin America and the world. Since the year 2000, we have been committed to drawing smiles on the faces of our children, without any type of social, racial, or religious distinction. This happens through the support and promotion of basic education, access to basic medical care, and the development of value programs. and principles for life.
To achieve this, we focus on offering young people and adults the opportunity to participate in Social Projects, Educational Camps, Mission Trips, and Special Events. The purpose for this organization is to help children throughout Latin America and the other parts of the world to improve their quality of life and dream with a different future.
It is our goal to offer each child the opportunity to improve their quality of life, become a good human being, live with a purpose and help their neighbor.

Our Mission
Foundation Smiles is more than an event, a program, or an aid project, it is an experience that will change your way of seeing and valuing life. These expeirences, without a doubt will lead you to understand what is the true meaning and purpose for why you are in this world.
At SMILES, we know that we cannot solve the world's problems of poverty, hunger, and disease, but we are convinced that each person can make a difference in the fight against these social realities.
Knowing that each person has the ability to bring smiles to our children, Smiles has been created to give you the opportunity to use your hands, your skills, your talents, and resources to change the world of our children, one at a time.
