The Miles for Smiles Club, a student-led organization, was founded for the purpose of providing financial support for patients of the Craniofacial Center whose families cannot afford these services. All proceeds raised will go directly to the UNC Craniofacial Center to ensure access to comprehensive, specialized treatment for pediatric patients affected by craniofacial conditions.
