In order to further the goals of the Foundation we have recruited hundreds of Honorary Smile Ambassadors across North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa in recent years. Many are or were luminaries in the fields of government, education, sports and entertainment.  Actors Jackie Chan and Brook Shields, Comedian Jerry Lewis, Prince Albert II of Monaco, golf legends Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman, singer Phil Collins and Jimmy Buffet, racers Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Darrel Waltrip, international personalities Heather McCartney and Yoko Ono, Dr. Patch Adams, Dr. Sergei Kruschchev, Winnie Mandela and a number of US Senators and Congressmen and Congresswoman have all agreed to serve as Honorary Smile Ambassadors, just to name a few.  With their help, we spread good cheer and good works throughout the world.
     Our Foundation is now the major sponsor of World Smile Day® each year.  In 1999, Harvey Ball declared the first Friday in October each year to be World Smile Day®.  He believed that we could and should devote at least one day each year to smiles and kind acts.  Thus, the theme for the day is "Do an act of kindness.  Help one person smile!".  Every year on World Smile Day®, the Foundation sponsors activities in Worcester, MA to focus on the day while encouraging people and organizations worldwide to join in.  For more information on World Smile Day® visit www.worldsmileday.com .
