It works only with local doctors – helping them with funding, training, equipment and technical support. This ‘model’ not just builds eventual self sufficiency instead of perpetuating dependence, it improves the treatment infrastructure in these cou ntries, raises standards of medical practice, fosters a sense of ownership and pride – but is also very cost effective. It is also one of the leanest of its kind – run and managed by just about 60 people worldwide, making The New York Times call it “….probably the most productive charities – dollar for deed in the world”! Thanks to this approach Smile Train has grown to become the world’s largest cleft charity having sponsored over 980,000 safe, quality and totally free surgeries in 75+ countries since inception. Smile Train’s India programs are the largest – accounting for almost 40% of the global surgeries. For more information please visit www.smiletrainindia.org
