Ready for a life-changing experience?
Our work wouldn't be possible without volunteers, like you. Many of our volunteers have been with us for 14+ years. If you are looking to work hard, make a difference, and form life-long friendships, this is for you.
What you can expect:
-
1 week of travel (usually Saturday-Saturday). This typically includes travel from home to site, screening day, 5 days of surgery, and travel day from site to home.
-
Flights, transportation, lodging, and meals covered by Sharing Smiles
-
Long but rewarding days
-
Opportunities to connect with volunteers from across the US and the host country site
-
Interactions with some of the best patients and families in the world
-
A forever changed outlook on what is possible when people come together to do great things
