One Day, Two Generations Changed Forever

When we first met 10-year-old Rajib earlier this year, he was self-conscious and struggling in school. He didn't have many friends. His father, Alim, could relate. When he was in first grade, his classmates abused him so badly for his cleft that he was forced to drop out. He never went back.

Then they received Smile Train's 2 millionth — and 2 million and first — cleft surgeries earlier this year. Almost overnight, everything changed for the whole family. Even 50-year-old Alim can't believe how much promise and possibility his life now holds. This father and son's total transformation must be seen to be believed. And as you see it, keep in mind that Rajib and Alim are only two of the more than 2 million people from every corner of the world who are now living with renewed hope, health, and opportunity, thanks to Smile Train donors like you.
