In South Africa, many people have everything they could wish for while others live with nothing or very little.
Operation Smile South Africa is part of a global medical charity dedicated to providing free, safe surgery and comprehensive care for children and adults living with cleft conditions and other facial differences. Through the expertise of volunteer medical professionals and the generosity of donors and partners, we help transform lives by improving health, function, confidence and opportunity.
Since 1982, Operation Smile has delivered hundreds of thousands of life-changing surgical procedures and provided comprehensive cleft care in communities around the world. Today, our global network works across more than 35 countries, including several across Africa, strengthening local healthcare systems and expanding access to quality surgical care where it is needed most.
The Relate bracelet for Operation Smile was launched in partnership with Woolworths as part of its Good Business Journey, giving customers a simple yet meaningful way to support children born with cleft conditions. Today, these bracelets are supported through multiple retail and corporate partnerships. Every purchase helps raise vital funds that contribute towards life-changing surgery and care, helping patients access the treatment they need to eat, speak, smile and thrive.
More than a symbol of support, each bracelet represents hope, healing and the opportunity for a brighter future for children and families affected by cleft conditions.
