Simply Smiles, Inc is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization whose children’s village model is redefining how society’s most vulnerable children are cared for

Simply Smiles builds villages of foster homes where children are raised by families in strong intentional communities. Simply Smiles recognizes the strength that is born from overcoming adversity, and it nurtures children to become adults who are driven and prepared to fulfill their dreams and to help better society—for us all.

The Simply Smiles Children’s Village in Oaxaca (Wa-ha-ka), Mexico is an oasis for the region’s most vulnerable children. The children in our care learn, grow, thrive, and heal and they pursue their dreams and their brightest futures.


We are incredibly pleased to announce the successful transfer of the Simply Smiles Children’s Village to the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe.

Simply Smiles President & Founder Bryan Nurnberger marking the village’s transfer with CRST Chairman Ryman LeBeau.

A guiding principle of Simply Smiles is to provide bright futures by empowering the communities we are privileged to work with. The transfer of ownership and operations of our children’s village to the Lakota people exemplifies our dedication to that commitment and aligns with our values of sustainability, self-determination, and respect for Indigenous sovereignty.

The Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe is now positioned to be one of the few tribal nations with their own Native child welfare program.
