Step Up 2022 — Take Two!
We’re happy to announce that we’re gathering again again this year! Our annual conference for undergraduate volunteers will take place in person this July in Miami, Florida.
We look forward to seeing you at our Summer 2022 Step Up University Symposium from July 14-17, 2022! Please see more details below and submit your registration today!

This global symposium will gather our undergraduate student volunteers to share how Operation Smile contributes to global health – and how students from every major can get involved.
Professionals from different disciplines – medicine, business and education, just to name a few – will speak and offer advice for students’ next steps, not only in their own careers, but in their volunteerism with Operation Smile.
