Discover how one organization transforms lives through the magical power of a beaming smile.
A smile can mean many things: it can be a hello, an expression of happiness, a romantic gesture. For six-year-old Joseph, it means everything. Joseph was born with a cleft lip and cleft palate to an impoverished family living in a destitute barrio in San Remigio, Cebu. To survive, the young boy spent his early years scavenging in garbage piles looking for scrap to sell. He stopped attending school because he was teased and bullied by the other children. They called him names and threw stones at him. After corrective surgery sponsored by Operation Smile, Joseph returned to school with a newfound confidence. His surgery has given him the desire to pursue his education —giving him a chance at a better, brighter future.
