Operation Smile, Provider of International Medical Missions to Repair Cleft Lips and Cleft Palates, is Now Appearing as the Featured Company on WallStreetNewsHour.com

Operation Smile, the featured company on WallStreetNewsHour.com, provides medical assistance and organizes international medical missions to repair cleft lips and cleft palates for children born with facial deformities.

Operation Smile was founded by Dr. William P. Magee, a plastic surgeon, and his wife, Kathleen, a nurse and clinical social worker. In 1982, the Magees traveled to the Philippines with a group of medical volunteers to repair children's cleft lips and cleft palates. They discovered hundreds of children ravaged by deformities, and although they helped many children, the volunteers were forced to turn away the majority of those who sought help. The Magees saw the need and Operation Smile was born.

Operation Smile coordinates more than 30 Medical Mission sites in 25 countries annually. Last year, medical volunteers provided free surgeries for 9,334 children through international and local, in-country medical missions.

As a featured company on WallStreetNewsHour, Operation Smile will be prominently displayed throughout the site. Visitors will be able to access company information through links directing them to the company profile, news releases, job postings, products & services, audio interviews, and contact listings.
