Story

Hi All

What is the price of a smile? You are playing with a small child, you make a silly face or tell a draft joke and the kid rolls around laughing. All is good. Your joy extends to the child whose self confidence grows. How much would you pay for this moment????

 

Take the same situation where the child has a cleft lip. He cannot smile so we automatically “take pity” on him. No self confidence is transferred from us and we all know his life is not going to be the same as a “normal” kid. This can be fixed. For more information on the Smile Train, have a look at the section on the left of this page.

 

I intend to make a difference and help. On Nov 22 2008, I am taking part in a 10k Smile Train run in Dubai. I need you to sponsor me – how much you ask yourself?  It is up to you to decide, but it should be no less than the price of a smileJ
