Operation Smile is an international charity that focuses on helping children by healing their “smiles”. Almost every 3 minutes, a child is born with a facial deformity like cleft palate or cleft lip. Operation Smile has been providing services like patient evaluations and surgeries to children in need since 1982 through the help of dedicated medical volunteers. Their work has caught the attention of many celebrities over the years who have joined forces with Operation Smile in their excellent endeavors.
But we do not have to be celebrities to help. Operation Smile makes it easy to get involved with opportunities for Medical Volunteers, Student Youth Programs, Community Volunteers, and Charitable Donations. However, there are other ways to help, too, just by renting your textbooks through Campus Book Rentals. Campus Book Rentals has included Operation Smile in their 2012 Make a Difference Campaign, and through this campaign they will donate a portion of the proceeds of each book rented to Operation Smile. Pass this along to your friends and family who will be taking summer and fall classes. By renting books that college students already need through Campus Book Rentals, they can help transform a life through a smile!
