What is Gift of a Smile Heroes?
GSO’s Gift of a Smile Heroes initiative was created to recognize heroes of all types in the Atlanta metro communities by giving them free braces or Invisalign® treatment. A Hero can be a working mother, an essential worker, or a poll volunteer. And we cannot forget about our teachers, frontline workers and first responders. Heroes are nominated by individuals in their communities by completing a nomination form below. To celebrate the launch of the program, GSO awarded four adult heroes with complimentary orthodontic care and continues the program by selecting one hero recipient each quarter.
Since opening in 2016 GSO has provided over $150,000 in complimentary orthodontic care through Purple Heart Smiles, Gift of a Smile and now Gift of a Smile Heroes. We can’t wait to hear about your local hero, and the amazing impact they have had on our communities! Submit your Hero’s nomination by June 15 for our next quarterly contest winner to be announced July 15.
