I’ve just learned that Sony is supporting the amazing work done at Operation Smile, an organization helping children born with cleft palates, cleft lips and other facial issues.

In addition to providing physicians with Sony cameras to document their work, they’re also giving Operation Smile a $100,000 donation. Look at this powerful shot of a child seeing her new smile.

Founded in 1982, Operation Smile, headquartered in Norfolk, Virginia, is a worldwide children’s medical charity whose network of global volunteers are dedicated to helping improve the health and lives of children and young adults. Since its founding, Operation Smile volunteers have treated more than 115,000 children born with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial deformities and currently work in more than 40 countries. In addition to contributing free medical treatment, Operation Smile trains local medical professionals in its partner countries and leaves behind crucial equipment to lay the groundwork for long-term self-sufficiency.

It is truly great news that a worthy organization is on the recieving end of real corporate generosity. Here’s to seeing more stories like this every day.
