Meet SMILE Canada

SMILE Canada is a registered charity supporting children and youth with disabilities and their families since 2008. Our Hospital Support Program provides practical and emotional support to these families and those facing long hospital stays due to illness, injury, surgery, premature birth, or cancer treatment, including support during end-of-life care.

How does SMILE help families with a child in hospital?

Hospital parking. Daily parking adds up over weeks. We cover it so a parent can stay close.

‍Care packages. Comfort items for the child and the caregiver during a long stay.

‍Counselling and parent support. Someone to talk to when a family is facing the hardest moments, including end-of-life-care.

Omar's story

Omar is four. He loves cars and playing with his brothers and sisters. He was born with Down syndrome and was diagnosed with leukemia seven months ago.

His mom, Ana, says SMILE’s support has helped their family through some very hard moments.

‍"Your kindness to SMILE makes a difference for families like mine, whether it’s helping with hospital visits, therapy, or providing resources with care and dignity."

Your monthly gift helps families like Omar’s get the support they need to stay close to their child.
