During September 2020 The Tracy Clarkson Smile Foundation in partnership with Diversify collected Christmas presents and raised funds for young children and families. We decided to help the fantastic organisation Baby Basics with their Christmas Appeal. Baby Basics wanted to ensure that every child and parent referred to them for support throughout December would receive a Christmas gift. We are delighted to announce that today we delivered over 670 brand new Christmas gifts, Cots, Travel cots, Moses baskets and many boxes of essential items worth over £2000. This was the first project of The Smile Foundation, we are very excited for 2021 and all that it will bring, Our mission is to create a movement of kindness by building on community spirit and investing in charitable causes.

The Smile Foundation in partnership with their sister organisation Diversify, a non-profit organisation that promotes social inclusion through workshops, ran a charity drive in December called Tracy’s Christmas Smile.
The idea came about after learning of some of the wonderful things Baby Basics Sheffield were doing and the charity decided we wanted to help. Sara Cunningham, CEO of The Smile Foundation and a director of Diversify, said: “Since September The Smile Foundation, in partnership with Diversify, have been collecting Christmas presents and raising funds for young children and families.

A total of around £2,500 worth of gifts and supplies, a combination of wish list and matched items, have now been delivered to volunteer-led charity, Baby Basics.
Our volunteers worked around the clock ensuring 600+ presents were wrapped and ready for Christmas morning for Baby Basics to deliver.
"Tracy lived for every moment but she truly loved Christmas and all it embodied. She could not bare the thought of anyone being alone or going without at Christmas so it felt very fitting that our first ever initiative would be one for Christmas. It was a emotional time for all involved as it was our first Christmas without Tracy but I feel we did her proud and she would undoubtedly be beaming with that wonderful smile we all remember so well."

we love to support families!
