From the Global Smile Foundation website:

Global Smile Foundation (GSF) was formed in 2008 as a Massachusetts not-for-profit corporation. The founding members are a group of dedicated volunteers and medical professionals who have been actively involved with global outreach programs for the last 22 years in countries in Latin America, Africa and the Indian Subcontinent.

Collectively, GSF volunteers recognized the need for not just offering fragmented corrective surgical and dental procedures to patients born with cleft lip and palate deformities, but also the urgent need for implementing comprehensive care coupled with educational and preventive programs.

Students for Global Health (SGH) in collaboration with the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine is pleased to announce the fourth annual Global Health Delivery Seminar Series. The aim of this series is to engage leading global health practitioners in “intensive mentorship” sessions that will equip students with useful skills and insights for tackling key practical challenges in global health work.

*ALL* students are warmly invited to attend, regardless of background or interest in global health. Please also note that global health is indeed global, which includes domestic settings!
