Event Description:

The Night of Smiles Gala is the biggest fundraiser of the year for local non-profit Alliance for Smiles, an organization whose mission is to forever improve and transform the lives of children and communities impacted by cleft lip and palate by providing free comprehensive treatment, while training and equipping local teams to sustainably provide quality, long-term care.

Each year dignitaries, donors, volunteers, family and friends from around the world attend our gala to recognize volunteers & supporters who have gone above & beyond in transforming the lives of children and communities impacted by cleft conditions.

This will be the 21st anniversary event and the fourth one held live since 2019.
