Spreading Hope, One Smile
at a Time

Every child deserves a chance to smile, speak, and thrive. But for thousands born with cleft conditions and craniofacial deformities, the journey is filled with challenges—medical, financial, and social.
At Doshi Smiles, we are more than just an NGO. We are a community-driven movement dedicated to:

Educating families and communities about cleft conditions.

Supporting post-surgical care, speech therapy, and rehabilitation.

Breaking stigma and empowering lives through awareness campaigns

Providing access to life-changing surgeries for underprivileged children.

What We Do

We don’t just do surgeries—we change lives. Through our various programs, we ensure holistic support for individuals born with cleft and craniofacial conditions.

Cleft Lip Support

Did you know that about 1 in 2,800 children worldwide are born with a cleft lip? This occurs when the upper lip tissue doesn’t fully join before birth, leaving a gap that may extend to the nose. This condition can make feeding, speaking, and even smiling difficult. At Doshi Smiles, we provide life-changing surgeries and comprehensive post-operative care, ensuring every child gets the chance to smile confidently.

Cleft Palate Support

Approximately 1 in 1,700 newborns are born with a cleft palate—a gap in the roof of the mouth that can make eating, speaking, and even breathing difficult. This condition often leads to ear infections and hearing issues, affecting a child’s overall development. At Doshi Smiles, our specialized surgeries help close this gap, enabling children to eat, speak, and confidently thrive.

Craniofacial Deformity Aid

Craniofacial deformities from birth conditions, trauma, or burns affect appearance, self-esteem, and social life. At Doshi Smiles, we offer holistic care, combining expert surgeries, rehabilitation, and counseling. Beyond physical correction, we provide emotional and psychological support, helping patients regain confidence and lead fulfilling lives.

What We Care

We don’t just do surgeries—we change lives. Through our various programs, we ensure holistic support for individuals born with cleft and craniofacial conditions.

Awareness & Education

In many communities, cleft conditions are misunderstood, leading to stigma and shame. Our education programs work to spread awareness, provide early diagnosis, and ensure families seek timely treatment.

Surgical & Post-Surgical Assistance

Healing doesn’t end after surgery. We support patients through recovery, speech therapy, and psychological counseling to help them regain confidence and integrate into society.

Family & Community Support

A child’s well-being depends on their family’s support. We work with parents and caregivers to offer guidance, emotional support, and resources so they can help their child succeed.

Building Enduring Bonds & Empowering Futures

At Doshi Smiles, we blend surgical precision with heartfelt connections, building enduring bonds through lifelong care. Each surgery not only restores physical features but also empowers futures, instilling confidence and opening doors to new possibilities. Join us as we transform lives, one smile at a time.

Addressing the Unseen Challenges

Across the globe, particularly in developing nations, numerous individuals suffer silently from cleft lips, cleft palates, and other facial deformities. These conditions do more than alter appearances—they impact lives, limit opportunities, and can lead to social isolation due to prevailing stigmas and lack of resources.

A Comprehensive Path to Wellness

There are almost 50 million people in the United States who experience some type of arthritis. Arthritis is chronic or rarely changes and can progress.

Join Us on This Journey

At Doshi Smiles, we believe in the power of community and the ripple effect of every single smile we restore. Together, we can create a cascade of change, empowering individuals and enhancing futures, one incredible smile at a time.

Many children with cleft lip, cleft palate, and craniofacial deformities face social exclusion, bullying, and difficulties in basic functions like eating and speaking. Due to a lack of medical access and awareness, thousands go untreated.

Through strategic partnerships, community outreach, and support, we:
1) Life-changing medical procedures for those in need
2) Provide long-term rehabilitation and speech therapy
3) Run awareness campaigns to eliminate stigma

Together, we can restore dignity, confidence, and a brighter future for every child in need.
