Smiles for Frankston
Event description
The Business of Smiles would like to invite you to the special screening of PGS: Intuition is your Personal Guidance System, raising money to bring Smiles for Frankston.
Intuition, the personal guidance system….
"This documentary gifted me the strength to chase my dreams, the courage to trust myself and the opportunity to find my purpose. Bill Bennett was screening his documentary in Frankston Hoyts cinema when he listened to his intuition and he followed me into the atrium to invite me to take his seat and watch what had become his mission and life’s work. It opened my heart to possibilities. It opened my mind to what could be, It allowed me to give myself permission to look for more."
Scott Carson, Co-founder of the Business of Smiles

“What's crazy is that just the physical act of smiling can make a difference in building your immunity,” says Dr. Grossan.
Can it make a difference in building our community?? Let’s find out!
We want to improve the vibe of our community in the lead up to Xmas because it is a time of year that is stressful for many and with the fallout from Covid now is a great time to celebrate each other, especially with a smile
So what’s our plan?
Starting on the 12th of Decemeber continuing through to Midday on the 24th of December, we want to connect with 5000 hearts in Frankston by having smilers walking the streets saying thank you to the members of our community and leave them with a gift of happiness in a pair of socks with purpose!! These socks create connection and positivity bridging the gap in our community on many fronts…. Wether it be someone doing it tough, a business owner with a lot on their plate, a policeman doing their job, kids/teens finding their way in life, we all need a smile and an awesome pair of socks that every time you wear or see them in your draw they put a smile on your dial because of the memory created when receiving them….
What’s so special about these socks?
They are bright yellow socks, with black polka dots that carry a significant message. The black dots represent our dark days... we all have them no one is getting out of that. The yellow represents the warm winters sun you can feel on your back on those gorgeous sunny winters days... So on our dark days let the warmth of our community get around you, share these days so that we can all learn and support each other... The easiest way to do this is by putting these socks on and sharing the story of them so that you can pass on the smile you felt when you received them.... Let’s infect the world with Smiles!!
Why? Because Frankston is worth it… Frankston is an amazing place with all of the advantages and disparages of a major city…. Our drug, homelessness, youth, loneliness, aggression, disconnection problems seem to be never ending so we need to try something different… We want our families to feel safer, our businesses to be stronger, the heart of frankston beating with positivity celebrated by our community…. For years we have been battling the media and have been the butt of jokes from programs such as the footy show, however if you live here you know its a wonderful place and it needs to be celebrated so lets celebrate it with smiles!
Who are we?
The Business of Smiles is a NFP that engages directly with our community creating positive and lasting engagement with all of the wonderful humans of which it encompasses…. Each Smiler that is gifting the socks has a story of their own that allows them to be present with any individual gifting that person the opportunity to be seen and heard, such an important part of true connection….
Something to consider….
What does a smile mean to you? For me its the quickest way from my heart to yours….. A simple smile can change your day…..
Have you ever be gifted an authentic warm smile from a stranger? How did it feel?
Have you ever been gifted something that every time you see it it makes you smile and feel good because you can remember the smile that was given to you when you received it?
What would a community look like if it was full of smiles? What kind of difference would it make to our community? I like this vision….
Required Financial investment to make this happen is $52,000
Our socks are of high quality because we believe that if we gift you something then we only want to gift you our best…. A cheap gift is exactly that and you can feel that it is just a token….
