Meet Marta

Imagine handing your baby off to someone you’ve just met. Marta’s mother and her daughter traveled 12 hours by themselves to get to the Smile Network surgery site in Patzun, Guatemala. Their difficult journey began several years before, when Marta’s older brother – also born with a cleft condition – died from failure to thrive after they weren’t able to make it to a mission site. The Smile team worked tirelessly to reassure Marta’s mother that they were going to take care of Marta like she was their own baby. And that’s exactly what they did.

Smile Saver Project

Our work of providing life-changing surgeries around the world has been temporarily suspended. Our medical personnel who volunteer their time and expertise are vital to the success of Smile Network International and in support of them, we have created the Smile Saver Project. The purpose of this project is to provide protective gear to those who are serving on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

For $20, including shipping, you can order a Smile Saver, a 100-percent microfiber pull-over face covering for yourself and receive a 3M certified, N95 mask to gift to a frontline COVID-19 hero of your choosing.
