Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Santanu Mishra, Co-founder and Executive Trustee, Smile Foundation said, "Style has a universal language, but the key really lies in who can translate it to create a positive impact, and this is just what we have attempted to do in partnership with Honor for the 'Honor the Smile' initiative where you get a chance to do your bit for the development of underprivileged children."

Sunil Sethi, President Fashion Design Council of India said, "I have heard great things about the work done by the Smile Foundation and we are delighted that our designer Rina Dhaka along with Honor is collaborating with them. 'Honor the Smile' is a campaign which supports the upliftment of the girl child and we at FDCI are happy to support this cause."
