From Geneva to Manila: Turning music into life-changing smiles

Operation Smile Philippines is incredibly honored to officially receive the proceeds from the 3rd Edition of Gift of Smile Through Music, personally turned over by James Adalla and his mother, Fe Adalla.

Born with a cleft lip and palate himself, James has turned his lifelong passion for the piano into a beautiful mission of hope. Following his successful charity concert at the Auditorium Ansermet in Geneva, Switzerland, James has brought the warmth and generosity of the Swiss community straight to our doors.

With about Php400,000 raised, this incredible contribution is already actively funding life-changing comprehensive cleft care and surgeries for children born with cleft conditions in the Philippines.

What started as melodies on a piano in Geneva is now transforming into bright, confident futures and a lifetime of smiles for these children and their families.

Thank you, James, for your unwavering dedication, your massive heart, and for proving that music truly has the power to heal.
