Next Stop, the Future of Cleft Care:

On Track to Three Million Smiles

Smile Train's Strategic Plan 2021-2026

Boy laughs at camera

Smile Train’s journey began with an idea: Local experts could provide cleft care to those in need more sustainably than the prevailing mission-trip-based model. More than 1.5 million cleft surgeries, and 2,100+ empowered doctors, nurses, speech therapists, nutritionists, dentists, and so many others later, this idea has powered us to become the global leader in cleft care.

An idea can provide a lot of momentum, but it can’t lay track to an unknown future. For that, you need a map. Next Stop, the Future of Cleft Care: On Track to Three Million Smiles is Smile Train’s detailed itinerary to our next five years of exponential growth.

Imagine — more than three million children who may once have been condemned to a life of sickness, hunger, and isolation now living with smiles and hope.

All because of the power of a single idea and those — like you — who dared to believe in it.

Together, we will reach our destination and change the world, one smile at a time.
