GIVE EVERY CHILD THE CHANCE TO SMILE
Smile Train is an international children’s charity that provides 100%-free cleft repair surgery and comprehensive cleft care to children in 85+ developing countries. Our sustainable model empowers local doctors to provide cleft care in their own communities.
COMPREHENSIVE CARE
Every child with a cleft needs more than just surgery — they may also need dental care, orthodontics, and speech therapy. Where these services are available, we do everything we can to provide them to our patients.
SUSTAINABLE MODEL
We use the “teach a man to fish” model focusing on training local doctors to perform cleft repair surgery and provide comprehensive cleft care in their own communities. Those doctors then go on to train other doctors creating a long-term, sustainable system.
OUR IMPACT
As a result of our efficiency, Smile Train has performed more than one million surgeries since 1999. Every 5 minutes, a child receives their life-changing cleft repair surgery.
NOT JUST FEEDING PEOPLE . . .
HELPING CHANGE LIVES!

The Food Depot operates a range of programs designed to meet critical needs in the nine Northern New Mexico counties we serve. We help people of all ages with differing needs those living in remote villages as well as in our largest cities and towns.
Your generosity and your contributions of food, financial support and volunteer time make all of our work possible.
And when you support The Food Depot, you're not just feeding people. You're helping them change their lives. You're improving a child's ability to learn, increasing a worker's productive energy and strengthening an elderly person's resistance to disease.
