The Make 'Em Smile Foundation was founded 10 years ago by Kris Rodriguez, a Reno native with a heart for giving back. What began as a small initiative to bring holiday joy to children in need has grown into an annual community tradition. Over the years, the foundation has organized toy drives and fundraisers, supporting local organizations such as the Women and Children’s Center, Domestic Violence Resource Center, Salvation Army, and local schools. Recently, we’ve expanded our reach by partnering with nonprofits like Forever 14 and Ashlee's Toy Closet, continuing our mission to spread smiles and help those in need
