Mission: from website:

Unlike many charities that do many different things, The Smile Train mission is focused on solving a single problem: cleft lip and palate.
Clefts are a major problem in developing countries where there are millions of children who are suffering with unrepaired clefts. Most cannot eat or speak properly. Aren’t allowed to attend school or hold a job. And face very difficult lives filled with shame and isolation, pain and heartache.
The good news is every single child with a cleft can be helped with surgery that costs as little as $250 and takes as little as 45 minutes.
This is our mission:
-To provide free cleft surgery for millions of poor children in developing countries.
-To provide free cleft-related training for doctors and medical professionals.
Until there are no more children who need help and we have completely
eradicated the problem of clefts.

Smile Train Express Database
Smile Train Express Helps Cleft Community

The Smile Train Express: a free, secure, web-based patient database accessible to the global cleft community.

Visitors to this site can download The Smile Train's own Safety and Quality Improvement Protocol, a comprehensive set of cleft surgery guidelines developed by experts in the fields of safety and cleft surgery.

The benefits are clear: cleft organizations seeking to standardize and improve care can look to the Smile Train model for guidance, doctors in developing countries can standardize their record-keeping free of charge, and a database of secure, well-managed records could generate suggestions for new research.
