Little Smiles Stars Ball

Little Smiles is a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization that helps caring professionals bring joy to children in tough situations. A wide range of caregivers help children of all ages who are facing devastating circumstances including terminal illness, abandonment and other trauma.

These are children who often spend many nights alone in hospitals, shelters and temporary homes, and who can be subject to painful procedures and other emotional strains that they are simply too precious to handle alone.

The professionals working with them understand each child’s unique situation and how to help them heal, but they often lack the resources and financial support to make them smile.

Each year, nurses and social workers partner with Little Smiles to nominate 14 children to receive special recognition at the Stars Ball. The “stars” are chosen for their extraordinary bravery, and character. They are treated like celebrities for the day, complete with makeovers, gowns, tuxedos, and complete red-carpet treatment.
