Operation Smile®

Help Make a Miracle!


You can help a child smile with your donation.

You can help make a miracle! Join our Make a Miracle challenge by donating toward reconstructive surgeries for children around the world through Operation Smile®. Since 2004, Close To My Heart has partnered with this non-profit charity to provide free life-changing operations for children with facial deformities.

It takes as little as $240 to help provide a surgery and change a young life forever; with our Make a Miracle challenge we hope to raise enough funds to help create hundreds of new smiles. Participate in the miracle by donating—100% of your contribution goes to Operation Smile, so every dollar helps. And thank you for helping us change the world, one smile at a time!

Ways you can help:

  • Your Consultant will gladly accept your donation.
  • Round up your order total and donate the difference.
  • Work with neighbors and friends to sponsor one surgery.
  • Donate when you make a purchase on your Consultant’s MyCTMH® website.

To learn more, watch our “Make a Miracle” video.

Ming, 6 years old

Phnom Penh, Cambodia

By chance, Ming’s mother found an Operation Smile® flyer advertising the November 2007 mission in Cambodia. Ming and his grandmother traveled five hours in an overcrowded taxi from Odong Mein Chey province to the Khmer-Soviet Hospital in Phnom Penh to be considered for surgery. Before his operation, Ming didn’t want to go to school because the neighborhood children were scared of him and would not let him play with them. Now that his mouth and nose are corrected, Ming looks forward to school. With these amazing results, he is now a lively and confident kid.
