Who founded Send A Smile Today™?

Send A Smile today™ was founded in 2013 by Kim Whitehouse, a cancer survivor. In May 2011, at the age of 38 with a husband, 6 year old daughter and 9 year old son, Kim was diagnosed with breast cancer. Kim realizes that not all people going through cancer treatment have the same support that she had. This is why Kim created Send A Smile Today™. She wants to provide hope, love, and support to others going through cancer treatment to let them know that others are thinking about them during this difficult time.
