The Smiles Foundation
is dedicated to giving the children
of the developing world the opportunity for a healthier and more
fruitful existence
Our
primary goal
is to offer curative dental treatments and
preventative health education to children and adults through our
permanent and mobile dental clinics in the Dominican Republic. Community
development projects along with computer education programs for
youth are our newly developed areas of work.
We
want to guarantee
that the marginalized population has
equal access to economic and social resources without destroying
their self-determination and without discrimination of race, sex,
age, and economic status.
Our
long-term vision
is to expand and amplify our community
development agenda.
