Our Mission

  SmileFaith Foundation has been providing “HOPE WITH EVERY SMILE” since its beginning in 2009. As a faith-based 501c3 nonprofit, SmileFaith brings charitable dental care and Christian inspiration to under-served residents of the Appalachian Mountains and beyond through several unique programs such as:

• Charitable Dental Clinics
• Care for Survivors of Human Trafficking, Domestic Violence and addiction (Hope With Every Smile)
• Distribution of daily staples for those in need
• Community events

  Tom Lane, former Navy chaplain, pastor and entrepreneur searched for a meaningful way to give back by helping people smile again. The journey began over 12 years ago when a local transitional facility asked Tom if he could help one of their new residents named “Rosemarie”. She had recently completed the Pasco County Drug Court Program, emerging from a life filled with addictions and homelessness. Together, Tom and his team gave Rosemarie the opportunity of a wonderful new life. Rosemarie’s hope was steadily restored through life-changing mentoring and a beautiful smile makeover!
