100 Smiles in 5 Days –14th Intl. Cleft Surgery Mission at GC4

It’s a great pleasure for Mission Smile to announce the successful completion of our 14th International Cleft Surgery Mission at Guwahati Comprehensive Cleft Care Centre (GC4).  We conducted the mission from 20th-25th May 2018.

The inauguration of the mission was on 20th May in the honourable and gracious Celebrity Artist presence – Angaraag Papon Mahanta and Miss Japan – Priyanka Yoshikawa (SmileAsia ambassadors). They came to support our noble cause.  The dignitaries not only appreciated our efforts on-stage but spent time with the team and beneficiaries during the first day of the mission. They wished success in our endeavour of transforming clefts into smiles!

The doctors, nurses, coordinators and many supporters from Asia, the USA and Germany, worked hand-in-hand during the mission days.

We screened 181 patients and the team delivered 100 smiles through safe cleft rectification surgeries in 5 mission days.

As a follow-up, there was a review session after one-week of mission completion. This saw 76% turnouts of beneficiaries for follow-ups. This is a Big Success! We wish all of them healthy and smiling days ahead.

It was indeed a pleasure and privilege for Mission Smile to get the support of such an excellent and hard-working team from India and abroad

With every helping hand and a compassionate heart, we are paving ways to create new smiles. Your contribution is needed! Donate to Mission Smile and gift life-changing smiles.
