Mission Statement

The Healing with Smiles – KeepSmiling Alliance promotes emotional encouragement and hope for individuals living with a life-threatening illness. 

It is our belief that a simple smile lifts the spirit, touches the heart and nourishes the soul.

We are a non-profit, non-denominational organization whose efforts are supported by community volunteers who fund raise throughout the year.

Thank you for your continuous support.

Eva Horton Community Service Award of ExcellenceOn behalf of Healing with Smiles – KeepSmiling Alliance, we would like to congratulate the 2010’s recipients of the Eva Horton Community Service Award of Excellence.

This year we proudly present this award to Caitlyn Ellis and Colin Jackson.

Each of these award recipients should be commended for their dedication and for the achievement they have made for the alliance.  They have preformed as our mascots exceptionally well, often under high-pressure situations and even extreme heat.  Because of their individual efforts they have made a positive difference in so many people’s lives. 

Congratulations Caitlyn and Colin. And Well Done!

How Do We Promote Smiles?

We may not always be able to heal someone's body, but we should not stop trying to touch their heart.

Please complete this form to have a stuffed hippo (Buttercup) sent to someone you know with a life threatening illness and share a smile.


Healing with Smiles – KeepSmiling Alliance was founded to help bring hope to patients who are fighting a life-threatening illness.  With the use of a big smile and our mascot “Buttercup”, the Healing Hippo, we travel to hospitals, senior centres and private homes to deliver our message of hope.

"Buttercup" inspires courage and hope in people of all ages.

Let us know of anyone who needs their spirits lifted.  We always deliver our message of hope with a great big GRIN!

Vision of Hope

There is noting more spectacular and inspiring than nature in its unspoiled setting. For this reason we created a collection of photographs called Vision of Hope.

All of these photographs have been taken around Ontario in Canada. These photos are for the sole purpose of raising funds to support Healing with Smiles – KeepSmiling Alliance. 25% from each purchase will be donated to the Alliance. 

The Vision of Hope photographs are available in several different sizes. When you purchase a photograph it will come with a double acid-free mat with a co-ordinating colour. (Of course the purchased print will come without the watermark on it.)

Matted 5"x7" Photograph $11.99 CAD
Matted 8"x10" Photograph $29.99 CAD
Matted 11"x14" Photograph $59.99 CAD
Shipping is extra.
