GIVE KIDS A SMILE
in St. Louis, the home of our international headquarters, Service International continues its partnership with the Greater St. Louis Dental Society. "Give Kids A Smile," a fall and winter weekend program, provides free dental care to inner city children. In 2005, SI sent nearly 120 volunteers to St. Louis University to help give nearly 1000 kids great big smiles.
No medical or dental skills are required. You're there for a few hours on the weekend to assist the dentists, encourage the kids, and give out smiles.
OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
Since 1997, SI has partnered with Samaritan's Purse, serving as Regional Collection Headquarters for Operation Christmas Child and collecting and helping with the distribution of shoe boxes filled with fun and practical Christmas presents for needy children at home and abroad. Every fall, schools, churches, businesses, and individuals in the St. Louis region donate thousands of these gift boxes filled with joy for boys and girls.
