John reports:
Smiletrain, provides free cleft palate surgery for children in developing nations. We raised enough money to fund ten surgeries! We made it possible for ten children to smile for the first time. Not just smile, but have a second chance at life. They do some amazing work in India.
There are still some donations coming in, and I have a pledge to round us up to the next surgery level. (each costs just $250) If I can raise just a bit more, we'll have 11! and 11 is better than 10 right? What I like most about SmileTrain is that 100% of the funds go directly to the childrens benefit.

You can see an incredible film of the SmileTrain docs working in a Bangladesh village at www.YogaWithJohn.com/blog
