In the Innovation District
DirectionsThe Innovation District is nestled between Boston's transportation getaways: abutting historic Boston Harbor, adjacent to Logan International Airport, and at the nexus of two major interstate highways. It also contains the largest tract of underdeveloped land in the city of Boston, an area with opportunity for growth, a strong existing knowledge base, and the ideal location for producing new ideas, new services, and new products. From artists in the Fort Point to fish processors in the Marine Industrial Park, from meetings at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center to conversations on the waterfront of Fan Pier, the Innovation District is 1,000 acres of Boston's South Boston waterfront peninsula where innovation takes place |
Why Come to MacFest?
Children's Charity Organization
Helping Children's Smiles.
Making the world a better place.
Operation Smile is more than a charity. More than an NGO. A mobilized force of medical professionals and caring hearts who provide safe, effective, reconstructive surgery for children born with facial deformities such as cleft palate and cleft lip.
More than 200,000 children are born with severe cleft condition each year - often unable to eat, speak, socialize, or smile. In some places these children are shunned and rejected. And in too many cases, their parents can't afford to give them the surgeries they need to live a normal life.
That's where Operation Smile comes in. Since 1982, Operation Smile - through the help of dedicated medical volunteers - has provided free surgeries to children around the world. With a presence in over 50 countries, Operation Smile is able to heal children's smiles and bring hope for a better future.
Thanks to the generosity and spirit of volunteerism shown by supporters, Operation Smile heals thousands of children per year and, today, more than 150,000 girls and boys have a new chance at life because of their work.
And entire surgery can be performed for as little as $240, forever changing a child's life. With your help, how many lives can Operation Smile change tomorrow?
Who Will Be There?
Like any great festival, we're keeping our official list on the hush for a bit
(but we promise it's some of the best).
