Returning the smile to a child
Taking children from the family home is an extreme situation, and requires a group of caring, dedicated individuals to help children recover, and restore their smiles.
For 11 years now, Amway Greece has been helping children who suffer from abuse and neglect by supporting the Smile of the Child Foundation.
The organization provides shelter, counseling, medical support and long-term assistance to children, in coordination with families and governmental agencies.
Amway not only donates funds and products, but employees and Amway Business Owners in Greece also organize programs for the children to feel normal, have fun, and experience new things.
Last month, Amway staff took 60 children from different Smile of the Child shelters on a trip to visit the Museum of Natural History with the participation of 60 children from different shelters.
Their smiles were evident, and gave us hope that their futures will be bright.
