We teamed up with Operation Smile to support their Women in Medicine Initiative. Through this initiative, Operation Smile aims to provide educational pathways for women to be global leaders in health care. In low-and-middle income countries around the world, the Women in Medicine initiative works to: educate women on advanced medical practices, empower women to become leaders in global medicine, expand opportunities for women health care workers in different specialties and elevate cleft surgery and comprehensive care.

Our partnership does not only help restore children’s smiles, but it also enables women to play a leading role in the healthcare sector, inspiring them to be more confident and professional.

The goal of this initiative is to empower and support women to take on leadership roles in the medical field. Once we mentor these women and equip them with advanced surgical skills and specialty trainings, these women create new opportunities for the next generation of female leaders in health care.”
