Pacific Group Associates SD Hosts Casino Night To Raise Money For Operation Smile
Pacific Group Associates SD gathered members of the company and family and friends to participate in a charity event to raise money for Operation Smile. The newly formed company has partnered with the organization in an attempt to help local businesses raise money for an entire mission for the charity.
Pacific Group Associates SD is a sales and marketing firm located in San Diego. The company, which opened its doors in late spring of this year, is hired by national corporations to acquire and retain business accounts. The company specializes in bridging the gap between the large national service providers and the business owners who use the services.
Operation Smile is a non-profit organization founded in 1982. The organization is an international charity providing surgeries to children born with cleft lips. Since inception, Operation Smile has worked with medical volunteers to provide more than 2 million patient evaluations and over 200,000 free surgeries for children and young adults born with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial deformities. Operation Smile is known as one of the most prominent children’s charities in the world and currently has a presence in over 60 countries.

Over the past couple of years, Pacific Group Associates’ clients have taken interest in raising money for the charity in an attempt to raise $150,000 for the cause, an amount that would be able to fund an entire mission to a third world country in need of the services. When Pacific Group Associates SD opened its doors, they decided to help out with the mission. The casino night is the second event Pacific Group has participated in. They also joined local businesses in a charity basketball tournament for Operation Smile.
“I knew when I started the company that I wanted to make sure we gave back to the community. We have big goals to accomplish and one of those is to make an impact beyond the one we make with our customer, clients and employees. I am excited to be surrounded by a team of people that feel the same way,” explained Carl Uhl, President of Pacific Group Associates SD.
Pacific Group Associates SD has doubled in size since inception and plans to continue volunteering as they grow. The company plans to have multiple locations by the end of the year and complete its goal of raising over for Operation Smile, as well as volunteering for at least one other charity. Pacific Group Associates SD has set up a Smile Page on the Operation Smile website so people can donate or simply follow their progress.
