Make a Child Smile

Metropolitan Family Services’ Make a Child Smile was a great success! New activities, new music and more fun! Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and guests Make A Child Smile 2010 raised over $80,000 in net proceeds and still counting!

How does Make a Child Smile help children and their families?

Proceeds from Make a Child Smile provide at-risk children from low-income families with the special attention they need to form strong and healthy relationships with their parents and ensure their growth, development and success in school.
