Orlando Celebrates World Smile Day for the Special Olympics
To celebrate World Smile Day on 5 October, Orlando, the world capital of smiles, is gathering smile-worthy photos from around the globe.
Whether it’s a signature dance move, a funny face or just an infectious smile, Visit Orlando is seeking creative photo submissions at Facebook.com/VisitOrlando. On World Smile Day, the best photos will be featured in a “Let’s See Your Smile” video.
For every video view on World Smile Day, Visit Orlando will make a donation to Special Olympics with the goal of providing $25,000 to support the organisation’s global efforts to deliver 32 Olympic-type sports and more than 53,000 competitions throughout the year.
