After undergoing affordable, non-surgical treatment to fix an underjaw bite, 15-year-old Christopher Yao wanted to help other kids with the same condition. Soon after, he founded an organization called Kids Change the World to raise money for cleft palate surgeries.

Yao's charity work has earned him second place in the Kids Who Give contest sponsored by Farm Rich. For more info, visit www.kidschangeamerica.org.
