Rachel received a special card in the mail today. It was from The Smile Train. The outside of the card had pictures of children who have had their clefts repaired as a result of donations. Inside the card as a special message that stated In Honor of Rachel a donation had been made.
We are so fortunate in the United States to have doctors, plastic surgeons, the facilities, and medical insurance where babies who are born with cleft lips are repaired before the age of one. In most foreign countries children often go unrepaired. Charitable organizations such as The Smile Train and Operation Smile help children born with clefts get repairs though donations.
And now on behalf of Rachel, someone will get their smile fixed.
