Jessica Simpson is a spokesperson for Operation Smile. This is a very good group of plastic surgeons, anesthesiologists, pediatricians, and nurses who travel to third world countries and perform cleft lip and palate repair surgeries on children. Usually, these children would not have had any other options, and would otherwise be deformed for life. I helped on an Operation Smile child several years ago with Dr. Steven Ringler in Grand Rapids, Michigan. We repaired a cleft palate on a small child who was flown in for the surgery. There are many other groups which do similar things, such as Smile Train, but it was nice for Jessica to go out of her way to lobby for such a worthwhile cause. It's better than lobbying for Pizza Hut!
