About us
Inspired by
every smile
For children, happiness is difficult to find amid health challenges. The sad truth is that not all children are blessed with the oftentimes underappreciated gift of good health.
During periods of hardship and hospitalization, genuine joy is especially hard to come by. That’s why at Smiles for Children, we are here to replace anguish with hope.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit, our Florida-based foundation is dedicated to answering the call throughout the Sunshine State and beyond as we grow. All the while, our driving inspiration is the simple yet powerful gesture of a child’s smile.
Our mission
To offer dedicated support to hospitalized children, their families, and the healthcare professionals providing care.
Caring for children in need
through tailored activities and purchases, such as the comfort of a stuffed animal or the distraction of a gaming console.
Looking after families & loved ones
with outreach efforts to provide a range of tailored services, emotional support, and beyond during the hardest days.
Serving healthcare professionals
via initiatives such as nurse training or equipment purchases tailored to the unique needs of the medical teams we work with.
Supporting children’s hospitals
