Brendon's Smile was officially founded in 2009 as a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization to raise awareness of pediatric stroke. Our mission is to increase awareness and knowledge among both the general public and medical professionals about strokes and cerebrovascular disease in the unborn, newborns, and children up to 18 years of age.  In 2015 we have expanded our mission to support research that involves those impacted by pediatric strokes.
