Good morning,

Our Cleft Awareness Month campaign is underway, but we haven’t heard from you yet. Can babies with clefts count on your support today?

Your gift today will support free, comprehensive cleft treatment for a child in need.

Your kindness makes a whole new world of opportunity possible.

Thank you,

Susannah Schaefer

President and CEO

Friend,

Every three minutes, a baby is born with a cleft lip or palate.

That’s another child at risk of malnutrition and a lifetime of difficulties breathing, hearing, and speaking every 180 seconds ... but you can help.

July is Cleft Awareness Month. Smile Train is asking our most dedicated supporters — people like you — to help amplify their impact by making a gift. My friend, you can be a source of hope for babies with clefts today.

Your support will help children receive the life-changing care they need to thrive 100% free, including:

- Primary and follow-up cleft surgeries

- Speech therapy

- Nutritional support

- Specialized orthodontic and dental care

- Psychosocial therapy

This month is about more than awareness. It is about making real, tangible changes in the lives of people with clefts through free, comprehensive care.

The impact of cleft surgery is dramatic, immediate, and permanent! This is one of the best low-cost, high-impact medical interventions in the world — a true modern-day medical miracle that changes a child’s life forever.

Show a child that you care. Make a gift today!

Thank you for every action you take, whether big or small.

Gratefully,

Have you considered a monthly gift? You can support lifesaving cleft care with the ease of monthly auto-payments to fit your budget. Donate Monthly.
