Operation Smile is a global non‑profit medical organization. Their mission is to deliver free, safe surgery and comprehensive care to children born with cleft lip, cleft palate, and other facial deformities—especially in countries and communities where access to such care is limited. They also focus heavily on sustainability: training local medical professionals, building and equipping treatment centers, collaborating with local governments and health systems, and supporting patients beyond surgery with speech therapy, dental support, nutrition, and psychosocial services
