"I had never before considered how having a cleft affects every single aspect of a person's life. In Mazatlan, I was truly humbled and experienced first hand the many ways that Smile Train is improving lives around the world. I saw people of all ages undergoing life-changing surgery. I saw local doctors being trained. It was incredible to know that this blessing would not be a one time occurrence, but a persisting force of undeniable good."
"I’ve watched the Smile Pinki film and was moved and inspired by what I saw. I am honoured to be associated with an organisation like Smile Train."
"As a mother of two young children, it breaks my heart to know millions of children are suffering with unrepaired clefts. Please join me in helping Smile Train help hundreds of thousands of children who have no place else to turn."
"When you smile, the world smiles with you. Thank you Smile Train for giving so many children a whole new world of happiness."
"It was a pretty amazing situation to be with Smile Train with these incredibly talented doctors and watch them work. All you have to do is see one little child and suddenly you want to help them anyway you can. Smile Train surgeons are in there physically touching and fixing and changing people's lives and I think it's just incredible."
"Smile Train is even better than the Love Train, the Peace Train, and the Crazy Train."
"What could be better than helping a little kid smile for the first time? I bet it puts a smile on your face too."
"It's a beautiful thing that Smile Train does. They are the angels to these communities."
"It's hard to believe that something that costs so little and happens so fast can have such a big impact. This life-changing surgery provides these children with a new smile and the promise of a new future. And a second chance at life that they never thought they'd get."
"Smiles are contagious. When I see a child smile, it warms my heart. It breaks my heart to know that children born with a cleft in developing countries are thought to be cursed. We can change that. For only $250 you can give a child a second chance at life and save them from being ostracized. By donating to Smile Train, you are helping make a difference in thousands of lives."
"Giving the gift of a new smile to a child also gives that child a second chance at life. That's something to really smile about."

"Being a comedian and host of the award winning podcast "Never Not Funny", it was a no-brainer to support Smile Train, since we are both in the business of putting smiles on people's faces."
“By helping the children of the poorest people living in the world’s poorest places, Smile Train is showing the world what America is truly all about.”
"God has given me plenty of reasons to smile and I feel it's time to spread it around. There are a lot of children out there who so desperately need help, but can’t receive timely care because their families cannot afford this surgery or are ill-educated about this condition. Working with Smile Train, if I can make a difference in their lives, it will certainly make me feel honored and blessed."
“If you like kids and you like doing things that help people, I think you’d really like being part of this group.”
“Having a humble beginning myself, I know how it feels to not fit in. I can only imagine the pain and heartbreak these kids face every day. My hope is that we can give each and every one a beautiful smile.”
