Do you want to make a difference in the life of a child? Support Miles for Smiles!
The NYU Athletics Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is partnering with the charitable organization Kids Action for Kids in “Miles for Smiles”, a fundraising effort and awareness campaign conducted during D3 week (April 2-6).
The facts you need to know:
NYU’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee is composed of all NYU student-athletes; our committee focus is on career development and community outreach. Through "Miles for Smiles", we aim to highlight the important contributions that we can make to our local and global communities outside of the court, pool or playing field.
Kids Action for Kids is a charity organization founded in 2009 by NYU Swimmer Martin Brekke and his brothers. This charity is focused on raising money to fund surgeries for children born with cleft lip and cleft palate deformities. Approximately one in 700 babies in Southeast Asia is born with a cleft deformity, which can affect many aspects of their physical and social development. Together with their financial partner, Benchachinda Group, Kids Action for Kids has funded surgeries for over 1,000 children since their inception in 2009.
Through “Miles for Smiles”, we plan to change the lives of children. Our goal is $6,000. With our collective fundraising efforts and incredible external donor commitments, every dollar donated up to $6,000 will be effectively quadrupled. This will fund roughly 30 surgeries for children born with cleft lip or cleft palate deformities.
Donations of any amount will make a difference.
As NYU student-athletes, we pledge to go the EXTRA MILE. For each smile that we fund, we will do 1 mile of sled pushes to raise awareness for this cause. In meeting our goal of funding 30 smiles, we will be pushing 30 MILES of weighted sleds!
As a small community, we know our collective efforts can have a global impact. Can you help us to make a difference?
