The Distinctive Edge hits their goal and raises over $5,000 for Operation Smile

TIMONIUM, Md. - Oct. 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Sales and marketing firm helps raise money to fund reconstructive surgery for children around the world

[Timonium, MD] (October 2013) – The Distinctive Edge, a sales and marketing firm, announced that team members have raised more than $5,000 for Operation Smile (http://support.operationsmile.org/site/TR/Events/General?pxfid=10252&fr_id=1190&pg=fund),a children's medical charity that provides cleft lip and palate repair surgeries to children worldwide.

To raise money for Operation Smile, The Distinctive Edge sponsored many events over the past few months.  Most recently, we did a day of smiles, where The Distinctive Edge team went out and raised money from local people in the area.  We have done a bowl-a-thon, basketball tournament and a tailgate party.

"It is extremely important to us to give back to our community.  We choose Operation Smile because we believe every child deserves the chance to smile.  We not only wanted to aid in their efforts, but also truly contribute to spreading recognition for Operation Smile,” said The Distinctive Edge President Eric Chapman. “Our fundraising efforts were a great success – and a true testament to how simple it is to give back."

By making this donation, The Distinctive Edge will help Operation Smile fulfill their various goals, which include providing safe, effective reconstructive surgeries and helping dedicated medical volunteers provide these procedures to the children who need them. Since 1982, Operation Smile has provided these services – and with a presence in more than 50 countries, they are able to heal children’s smiles and bring hope for a better future.
