Give Kids A Smile is a non-profit organization based in St. Louis, Missouri. Founded in 2000, the organization is dedicated to providing comprehensive dental care to children in need. With a team of 12 employees, Give Kids A Smile has made a significant impact, generating $2.5 million in revenue annually. The organization's mission is to offer free dental care, hygiene materials, educational resources, lunch, and entertainment to children in a fun and engaging circus-themed environment. They host clinics twice a year at the Center for Advanced Dental Education at St. Louis University, serving thousands of children each year. Give Kids A Smile's innovative approach to delivering dental care has gained national recognition.
