Tomorrow night, Wednesday June 3rd is a very big night for The Smile Train and I want to invite you to be a part of it! At 7:00pm ET/PT, our Oscar® winning documentary, Smile Pinki will premiere on HBO. It’s a big deal - a film about clefts - hitting the big screen and HBO’s 40 million subscribers!
.
I really hope you get a chance to see it - if not tomorrow night, it will be replayed throughout the month.As a Smile Train donor, this film will really hit home. The brilliant director Megan Mylan does a great job of showing how The Smile Train program works, how it helps desperately poor children no one else will help, and how a simple little surgery that costs as little as $250 and takes as little as 45 minutes can give a child not just a new smile, but a second chance at life.
.
There is not one word of English in the entire film and yet it says everything we do perfectly. I promise you it will make you proud you got on board our train and the ending will put a smile on your face too. So please try to watch. Make some popcorn, bring some Kleenex and kick back and enjoy it it is only 40 minutes!
And remember, this film, this program, and these surgeries that you will see with your own eyes, would never be possible without your support.
.
Thanks for helping us help these kids.
