Founded in 2007 by Dr. Brian Rubinstein, Faces of Tomorrow is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization headquartered in Davis, CA
Faces of Tomorrow’s mission is to provide medical and surgical services to children with facial deformities around the world. We are culturally responsive and compassionate to the patients, their families, and the communities in which the mission serves.
Faces of Tomorrow utilizes a team of volunteer health professionals and skilled individuals to keep our costs down and devote as much as 90 percent of our donations and funding to our patients.
Because Faces of Tomorrow is small and unencumbered by a large bureaucracy we are able to perform surgeries for about $250 a patient. It is amazing to think that is takes so little to literally transform a life. When you repair a facial deformity you are giving the patient back their life. They are no longer an outcast instead they have the opportunity to lead a full life filled with smiles.
For that special gift we have to thank our supporters and the many companies that donated their products and services to FOT. They are truly our partners on this mission.
Faces of Tomorrow has also been featured in magazines and TV News Media, but the best stories are the ones told by our former patients.
Thank you.

17 year old Marvin Contiri came to our screening clinic in 2011 to have his bilateral cleft lip and cleft palate repaired and unfortunately we had to turn him away. He learned about the mission late and by the time he arrived our schedule was jam packed and we could not take any more patients. He returned in 2012 and this was his year. -

During our 2011 mission to the Philippines we met 19 year old Irene. Irene has a severe cleft lip and palate. She also suffers from various neurological deficits leaving her severely delayed. She came to us with many family members as supporters. Our doctors examined her and as a team decided it would not be safe to operate on her because of unknown health risks. -

11 year old Patrick "Captain America" touched the heart of every member of our team. He arrived at our clinic wearing a Captain America t-shirt and to our surprise speaking freely in English to our team. It was really special being able to communicate with him directly.
