Application Guidelines


  1. The applicant must have demonstrated a desire and initiative to improve his/her situation. Our hope is to provide assistance to families who are most likely to see Secret Smiles’ gift as an act of kindness that they can “pay forward” rather than a handout. Applicants CANNOT apply directly for assistance (see Instructions below).

  2. The referring agency/person must have a relationship with the applicant and be able to serve as a reliable reference and intermediary for the applicant. Referrals can come from social workers, teachers, pastors, or any representative of a social service agency or non-profit organization who has an ongoing relationship with the applicant.

  3. Only families with children in need will be accepted.

  4. A working phone number for the applicant must be provided.

  5. The applicant must have permanent housing and be in a stable living environment.

  6. The applicant’s home/apt. must be bed bug free for at least 2 months.

  7. In general, Secret Smiles provides twin beds and convertible cribs for children. If a child is extremely large, a full bed may be requested. Bedding is also provided for all beds.

Instructions

All applicants who need beds for their children must work with someone who will serve as a referral for them. They cannot apply to Secret Smiles directly.
