Operation Smile

Operation Smile is a worldwide organization and charity that performs free surgeries for children and teenagers in developing countries who are born with cleft lip, cleft palate, or other facial deformities. Pequannock Township High School senior and Operation Smile Executive Board member, Riley Bode, is passionate about the aspects of this club. “Operation Smile has given me the opportunity to become more involved in not only my local community but on a global level as well. Opsmile creates a space where students can work in their surrounding community to help support and raise money for kids seeking surgeries. I love that I can be a part of something so powerful and positive that works to create change. I would not have traded the experience and lessons I have learned with operation smile for the world!”
