Form 990-ez, Part III, Line 28

We tell the stories of children suffering and in need, giving them a voice and a platform for sharing and not feeling alone. We tell the stories of the donors who have come to their aid or brought them that spark of joy in the form of a smile. In addition to building a beacon of hope through our social media pages and videos, we will also organize events throughout the year to raise funds for pediatric cancer patients. Events not only bring donations but they are a great tool for raising awareness. Our ultimate goal is to turn frowns upside down and bring additional attention to the needs of children suffering from pediatric cancer, uniting compassionate people everywhere to provide the support and love they need to make it through any tough time with a smile.
