Raseri, Inc. raises money for Operation Smile

Raseri, Inc., a privately owned sales and marketing firm in Perrysburg, OH, held a corn hole tournament and barbeque to support Operation Smile!  Activities included a cornhole tournament, volleyball, yard games and food all providing for a great Sunday afternoon.  Enough money was raised to pay for two cleft pallet surgeries.  Throughout the year enough was raised by Raseri, Inc. and associates to sponsor a trip to Haiti to perform 200 surgeries!

Operation Smile is an international children's medical charity that performs safe, effective cleft lip and cleft palate surgery, and delivers postoperative and ongoing medical therapies to children in low and middle income countries. Every child deserves access to safe, quality surgical care. Every child deserves a future filled with hope.

Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft. A child with a cleft has twice the odds of dying before their first birthday. Children with cleft conditions who survive may have difficulty eating, speaking, hearing or breathing properly. In some places, they are shunned and rejected. And in too many cases, their parents can't afford the surgeries they need to live a productive life. For more information or to make a donation please visit:www.operationsmile.org

"Giving back is an important part of our core values and culture here at Raseri, Inc and we want to share our success with the less fortunate."  Rick Knutsen, President Raseri, Inc.
