Did you know that every three minutes a child is born with a cleft of some sort? And 1 in 10 of those children will die before they are a year old? Operation Smile is an international volunteer-based medical charity that provides children born with facial deformities (i.e. cleft palate and cleft lip) the reconstructive surgery they need in order to live a normal and happy life. Facial deformities that are not treated can hinder eating, talking, and the ability to even want to socialize. Operation Smile gives these children a reason to smile again without the fear of being rejected by others.
Buying college textbooks can be very expensive. That’s why Campus Book Rentals offers college textbook rentals. By renting textbooks you can save 40-90% off of bookstore prices. Now that’s a savings! Best of all Campus Book Rentals has partnered with Operation Smile and are donating over 1,000 life saving cleft lip surgeries this year to children in need. That’s amazing of them!
Renting textbooks to other students puts 2-4 times more money back in the book owners pockets vs. the regular buy back option. I sure could have used that when I was in college!

It is so sad that so many children can not afford the medical help that would so improve their lives.
I agree! It is very sad. I’m glad there are people that are willing to help for free though.
What an wonderful idea. God bless those children.
It’s a great organization 🙂
