Needless to mention, all these are our collective endeavours!

A few of Smile's individual supporters speak about their vision of philanthropy and support.

"In this world no child is born imperfect. Every life is a blessing and a hope for mankind. Education is the primary catalyst which transforms ignorance to hope as Swami Vivekananda had long back said – “Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man.”

I have been highly impressed by the two most important issues that Smile Foundation speaks of in its effort to spread the light of education amongst the children of the underprivileged population in the country. It speaks of education as a tool to generate productive assets and also of partnership.

I chose to be a member of the Smile Foundation Family because it is here where I envision a prospect to contribute to a better, healthier and an enlightened India of the future."

“I believe that education, not just literacy, is the tool for cleansing all social evils and suffering from a complex country like India. With the power of education, we can eradicate poverty, health issues, behaviour, or anything for that matter.

When I first heard about Smile Foundation, I believed in the approach it is taking. Now I have been supporting it through financial as well as technical support.

I have one suggestion for all individuals who believe in charity and some good organisation or other – do not waste anything in your home or office. For example, even you can collect and sell old newspapers and support a cause you believe in.”

"I was interested to help a needy child 3 years ago. But, my wish is fulfilled only after I came to know about Smile Foundation through various sources.

I congratulate Smile Foundation and its members to carry out such kind of activities and services, though people like me only could provide money.

I wish our children to daylight their amazing skills to this world and that will add up to the sunlight.Thank you for giving me this opportunity and wish to grow and spread the wings all over the world."

"I am just 27. I have gone through so many hurdles in life. I have realised that education teaches you first and then puts you to examination; life puts you to examination first and teaches you later.

The only solution to all social and national problems we get to know from media everyday is nothing but basic and primary education. I always dream of serving my life teaching and providing education to the people. Though my contribution to Smile is small but I feel this is the roadmap to my dream and goal."

I have always believed that education is an effective tool for mankind to understand everything in a correct and broader way. I came to know of your organisation while watching a TV programme in which Smile children performed a few months ago. Later on I checked about Smile on the internet to convince myself further that we share the same views. Then I decided to join smile family because it's not only promoting education at it's own but also supporting other genuine needy NGOs.

This way benefit goes to larger section without wasting resources like time, manpower and money in building up bases in new areas and managing the existing one. I think it's a unique model to reach masses effectively in less time and cost.

"It is my dream to help organisation like Smile for ensuring children as future of our nation.

I belong to a middle class family. My Mom, an illiterate and a single mother, alone had worked hard to educate and raise me and my sibling. No relative or organisation had come forward to help us in education. My mother had nowhere to go for help, except the Almighty!

This is just the beginning as a small drop from my side. I will try my best and if Allah gives me more, I will share more with the Little Angels of Smile.

My wish for Smile little angels is that they should study hard and dream to reach pinnacle of Success in life. They must also become good human being and persons with ideal human values.

I wish our Children always get success in all parts of life after all struggle and little support from all of us."

"We wanted to do something for the children in need for my father's death anniversary. We found no better way other than supporting a child's education for a year. Moreover, I'm living in France and there is always a call from the motherland. With better living conditions here, I think of doing something, however small it may be, for our country and people. I should not forget that my biggest support in all these matters is my wife (she is a French national) who loves our country and our people as much as I do.

I wish to be (at least visually) anonymous for these ventures. Very glad to be part of Smile community and hope to support your missions in the best possible way we can."
