Cydcor Launches Fifth Annual Day Of Smiles Corporate Philanthropy Campaign For Operation Smile

AGOURA HILLS, Calif., April 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Cydcor, the recognized leader of outsourced face-to-face sales, will again host the Day of Smiles fundraising drive benefiting international children’s charity Operation Smile, Cydcor president Vera Quinn announced today. This marks the seventh year that Cydcor has partnered with Operation Smile in this corporate philanthropy program to provide life-changing surgeries to children born with facial deformities. Cydcor will kick off the Day of Smiles campaign at its Agoura Hills corporate headquarters May 20. The network of independent sales offices will also participate through May 24.

As Cydcor readies its 2017 Day of Smiles fundraising campaign, corporate office volunteers and members of their independent sales offices recently returned from Guadalajara, Mexico, where they helped provide assistance and comfort to families while their children received surgeries from the Operation Smile medical team. Funds raised this year will be used in part to help fund additional Operation Smile medical missions.

“By partnering with such an amazing non-profit as Operation Smile, we are able to impact children’s lives dramatically through the gift of a smile,” said Quinn. “The work we help fund through Operation Smile goes well beyond fixing a cleft lip or palate for these kids – we’re funding surgeries that give hope to the families for a better quality of life for their child. Our four days of fundraising helps create a lifetime of smiles.”

Cydcor has raised nearly $900,000 in charitable donations for Operation Smile since 2010, and has sponsored five medical missions. Cydcor volunteers returned from the most recent medical mission to Guadalajara, Mexico, in March, where they helped provide assistance and comfort to families while their children received surgeries from the Operation Smile medical team. Cydcor’s corporate philanthropy initiatives have previously helped fund medical missions to Brazil, Guatemala, Bolivia and Mexico, with this year’s fundraising campaign expected to help sponsor additional medical missions in the coming months.

Cydcor and its network of independent sales offices throughout the US, Canada and the United Kingdom will be hosting a variety of fundraising activities through their annual Day of Smile event taking place May 20-24. Hoping to beat their previous best of $130,000 raised last year, Cydcor’s charitable donations could top the $1 million mark of lifetime giving to Operation Smile this year.

“We are a people helping people business, and our annual Day of Smiles event is a perfect example of that commitment,” added Quinn. “I’m most proud that this pledge of service to others has become a cornerstone of our company, and those who work with us.”
