In case you missed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldsmileday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">World Smile Day<\/a> on 5 October, here\u2019s a little something sure to make you <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">beam<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a brand that\u2019s all about spreading happiness, we were delighted to announce the launch of what\u2019s set to be a rewarding partnership all round. Say hello to not-for-profit organization, <a href=\"http:\/\/autismuganda.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Save Children with Autism Uganda<\/a> (SCAU)!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4472 size-high-def\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/FOREOmeetsSCAU_issa-850x477.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"477\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A squad of influencers representing the FOREO Family traveled to Uganda, East Africa, last month. They were there to learn about SCAU\u2019s incredible work, and distribute some very special gifts to our new young friends: these fun Mr. M tees, plus ISSA play toothbrushes for all! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SCAU does a fantastic job of supporting young people with autism and their families, as well as educating communities on interventions and management to empower individuals to thrive! Ahead of World Smile Day, the FOREO Family had the honor of meeting the organization\u2019s founders, and some of the youngsters with whom they work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, there were smiles all round!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4468 size-high-def\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/10\/FOREO_SCAU_5-850x477.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"477\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We were especially pleased to see how the children themselves took to our ISSA toothbrushes. We know that individuals with autism may experience sensory sensitivity issues, and last year, heard from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreo.com\/mysa\/issa-no-mossy-teeth-people-sensory-issues\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">young woman<\/a> whose sensory coping habits had been transformed by our sonic silicone brush. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watch this space for more details of how FOREO will be brightening smiles for autism.
