Children born with cleft palate suffer from difficulties in speaking and eating, and the problem is substantial in rural Thailand, with up to 1 in every 1,000 children suffering from cleft lip or palate deformities.
Operation Smile is a worldwide charity, organizing volunteer missions to provide cleft lip and palate repair in developing countries, physicians training, education and research programs to eradicate cleft lips and palates.
Thailand’s chapter focuses on raising funds to arrange surgeries for children, and since 1997 were able to make a night-and-day difference for 8,000 children. For the last 4 years, Operation Smile Thailand have organized an annual boxing tournament “Fight Night” where each year more than 500 guests enjoy a series of charity boxing matches.
“With our developments we change the landscape, however to be able to play some part of changing a child’s life and give them more normal childhood is one of our proudest contributions to Thai society,” explained Kipsan Beck, Chief Marketing Officer, PACE.
