Operation Smile Louisville (OPSL) is a chapter of the

national organization and is affiliated with the University

of Louisville. We are devoted to raising money for

children born with cleft lip/palate and providing them

with a surgery to correct the condition. Our chapter is

engaged in the Louisville community as well centered

around the mission of Operation Smile. Within the past

two years, we have organized events such as a

fundraising concert, a 5k run, and dental education

presentations to local elementary students. We also have

events on the University of Louisville's campus to involve

students in raising awareness for cleft palate surgeries.
