Our Mission
The Foundation of Smiles was created by Smiley's Unique Entertainment to support the areas of humanity most in need. A major focus of this charity organization is helping veterans, underserved communities, disadvantaged children, and struggling families. By partnering with other charity organizations, we hope to expand our reach and in turn, further support these communities.
About Us
The Foundation of Smiles was created by Smiley's Unique Entertainment owner Larry Hurley after witnessing the need for improvement within a variety of communities. As the founder of the organization and combined with over thirty-five years in the entertainment industry, he has formed partnerships across the country to expand the foundation's reach worldwide. One goal drives his actions: to work with others who share his vision of a better world.
