Join the Puppet Pals Smile Show! Performances teach young learners about empathy, culture and the world around them. Share the stories of children affected by cleft lip and cleft palate and Operation Smile's mission to provide safe surgery and a brighter future. No experience necessary, we will provide training for enthusiastic volunteers with a joy for teaching children.
We are looking for volunteer actors, puppeteers and educators to help put on shows for elementary age students. Shows may take place at Operation Smile Global Headquarters or may be hosted at schools and community centers.

Mission Statement
At Operation Smile we believe every child suffering from cleft lip or cleft palate deserves exceptional surgical care.
Description
Operation Smile is an international medical charity that has provided hundreds of thousands of free surgeries for children and young adults in developing countries who are born with cleft lip, cleft palate or other facial deformities. It is one of the oldest and largest volunteer-based organizations dedicated to improving the health and lives of children worldwide through access to surgical care. Since 1982, Operation Smile has developed expertise in mobilizing volunteer medical teams to conduct surgical missions in resource-poor environments while adhering to the highest standards of care and safety. Operation Smile helps to fill the gap in providing access to safe, well-timed surgeries by partnering with hospitals, governments and ministries of health, training local medical personnel, and donating much-needed supplies and equipment to surgical sites around the world. Founded and based in Virginia, U.S., Operation Smile has extended its global reach to more than 60 countries through its network of credentialed surgeons, pediatricians, doctors, nurses, and student volunteers.
