We create bilingual smiles through transformational opportunities.

Who we are

WHO IS BSF

The Bilingual Smiles Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization whose main focus is to make a difference in the lives of ALL STUDENTS. We primarily bring assistance and educational opportunities to all students, including Title One Schools

OUR MISSION

To create bilingual smiles through transformational opportunities.

OUR VISION

Empowering students by creating original educational bilingual songs, stories and musical choreographies that bridge English & Spanish through American Sign Language.

WHO WE BENEFIT

Students ages 1-11

Elementary students
Early Learners
High School
Hard of Hearing

With your sponsorship, the Bilingual Smiles Foundation will continue meeting our youth where they are. Through our educational opportunities and colorful music videos, students will find the spark of learning a second language by learning English, Spanish or American Sign Language (ASL). Students that are hard of hearing or have emotional traumas will find comfort, creativity, and connection.

Since 2012, our efforts have impacted thousands of students in Florida's Title 1 schools, through our live cultural music concerts, free bilingual books, bicycles, piñatas, and other gifts that we deliver during the Christmas Season and the Feast of the Three Kings in January 6th.

Lastly, our scholarship program also supports high school students who want to go to college.

Donations are 100% tax deductible. Your generosity makes possible these opportunities. Be a part of our volunteer programs or just make a donation. Call us at (863) 944-7495
