A Personal Note from The Executive Director:
Thank you so much for visiting our website. Here you will get to know who we are and what we do. Since you are here, I know that you are interested in finding out how you can help those affected by breast cancer.
There are many more breast cancer charities asking for your help and donations than there are different kinds of breast cancer.
Some use the money collected for research, some for awareness and that’s all well and good.
Some have high administration cost and so less goes to the actual mission, but still raise a lot of money so, in that light, do a lot of good.
The Smile Never Fades, Inc. (TSNF) is a 501 c(3) nonprofit, with no executive salaries and very little administrative costs; most of which are related to sending you this message via social media. Proudly, more than 90% of all monies donated go to these three direct needs.
Our mission simple: is to provide support and comfort directly to the people affected by breast cancer. Putting ‘Boots On The Ground’, if you will. These are the three main areas TSNF is able to help.
- Housecleaning for those who may be unable to do it themselves. For this mission we partner with Merry Maids offices in South & West Austin, TX. For services in North Austin & Pflugerville, we proudly partner with Ame’s Cleaning.
- Grocery delivery is, at times, difficult so we partner with Burpy, who have a network of driver/shoppers to assist in this area.
- Transportation is, and always has been, the greatest of these needs and so we partner with Uber to provide rides when and where needed.
Through the sale of our books, social events, generous benefactors, and now our NEW COMFORT COOKING APP we are able to continue to help others when they need it most. We cannot do this alone, and ask for your help, friends. Reach deep knowing that we will be ‘Good Shepard’s’ of your money.
Gratefully,
Bill Bastas, The Executive Director of The Smile Never Fades, Inc.
