· This smiley image has become the most recognizable symbol of good will and good cheer on the planet.

· The World's first World Smile Day was held in the year 1999 and has been held annually since then.

· After Harvey died in 2001, the "Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation" was created to honour his name and memory.

· The slogan of the Smile Foundation is "improving this world, one smile at a time."

· The Foundation continues as the official sponsor of World Smile Day each year.

· This day today is being celebrated with added fervour and with the following motto: "Do an act of kindness. Help one person Smile!"
