Company Performance Metrics
SMILE Mass was created in 2009 by Lotte Diomede and Susan Brown. The two women had worked closely together on the SMILE Sudbury Playground Project.
Lotte was the Chairperson of SMILE Sudbury and Susan was on the fundraising committee. They were so happy with the results of the SMILE Sudbury Playgroup Project that they decided to continue to
work together to continue improving the lives of disabled persons and the people around them.
SMILE Mass (Small Miracles in Life Exist) is a non-profit dedicated to providing handicap accessible vacation rentals for children with multiple disabilities and their families throughout the United States with our first project in the Cape and the Islands area of Massachusetts.
SMILE Mass will offer state-of-the-art services to accommodate as many families as possible. They will also provide staffing with different expertise such as nursing, occupational therapy, physical therapy, etc. By maintaining specialized staffing as well as facilities that meet Universal Design Standards, the transition for families from home to vacation will be as natural a transition as possible. SMILE Mass will strive to become widely known as the leading resource for handicap accessibility in vacation homes.
SMILE Mass was started by Lotte Diomede and Susan Brown, both of whom have special needs children. They know how challenging it can be to go on vacation with children with multiple disabilities. They will create properties that we would like to go to on vacation and we would be proud to invite others to visit.
