In her book "The Gift of a Smile: My Mission for Africa's Children", Ute Winkler-Stumpf tells the gripping story of founding Hilfsaktion Noma e.V. 25 years ago with a sole purpose: to return to these children the smiles they had lost. It's the story of a woman who has seen more horror and suffering than most of us can imagine. But despite all the setbacks, she never lost hope and continued to fight for her conviction: Every child deserves to smile.
