ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Operation Seeing More In Life Everywhere, Inc was created to provide a safe space where young ladies with dreams develop to young ladies with vision. Our program is designed as a space where young ladies meet and socialize while learning the skills to become fruitful women in society.
In an everchanging world, Operation SMILE intends to ground young ladies by building and encouraging positive self-esteem, love, confidence and cooperation with others. Our young ladies are required to participate in activities such as serving their communities and receiving lifelong skills provided by local and virtual mentors, classes and community resources which help them discover their innate gifts and qualities. Every participant is given an opportunity to learn more about their strengths and weaknesses.
