Board of Directors:


Kimberly - Executive Director
Kimberly Downey is Mom of 10-year-old twins living in Southern California. She left the corporate world to become an entrepreneur of a successful children’s company with locations spanning over 19 Californian cities and 2 school districts. She has been featured in several periodicals, radio, and television. In November 2014 she was featured as one of the top Mom Entrepreneurs in Orange County and her business was awarded one of the top 100 companies supporting a World-Class education in Irvine, a city known internationally for its’ education.
In addition to her company, she is also a columnist, radio host, philanthropist, head of the youth and adult philanthropic ministries at her church, and creator and Executive Director of the non-profit organization, the Infinite Smile Project. The Infinite Smile Project came to life after her then 2-year-old daughter underwent life-saving open-heart surgery as a way to thank the many that helped her family through the experience. After witnessing what these expressions of kindness did for those who gave and received them it quickly turned into an organization that promotes these ideals on a daily basis to create a more meaningful and fulfilling life through philanthropy and charitable acts.
It is her goal to provide ideas, events, resources, and a call of action to children and adults alike in communities, schools, and even at home in a fun and innovative way to foster these wonderful traits that can lift and transform the world.


Racquel - Co-Founder and Smile Advisor
Racquel is our co-founder of the Infinite Smile Project. After her life-saving open heart surgery in April 2013 she enjoyed giving back to others that were kind to her during her surgeries and recovery she told Mommy she wanted to keep doing it – always.
Now, over 10 years later, Racquel is still creating campaigns and challenges, working with various charities across Orange County, the country and abroad. She, along with her twin, co-founded the first U.S. chapter of The Kindness Offensive from London, a program that has met Royalty, worked with British dignitaries and even held a close relationship with Mohammed Ali until his passing. Along with her passion for giving back in her community for the last 12 years, she is passionate about volleyball, her academics and excelling in all subjects, and traveling.
She has come a long way since her first bio at age 3.5 in 2013 stating, “I love handing wands and my acts of kindness cards, painting, and giving gifts to everyone. I also really love ‘My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic’, cooking and my Pink Puppy.”


Adrianna - Co-Founder and Smile Advisor
Adrianna is our co-Founder of the Infinite Smile Project alongside twin, Racquel. While helping care for her twin “bestie” in 2013 during her recovery, she learned how kind people can be and wanted to give back. It was a great pairing for the two of them. Now in high school, Adrianna excels in club and high school girls soccer, her academics, and still loves giving back. Over the years working with people she knows she wants to study psychology in college and most likely work with children or teens who need a shoulder to lean on. After over a decade of giving back, working with charities locally and around the world, she prefers giving more than receiving, and really enjoyed garnering interest in Club TKO after meeting their creators David & Rob in London in 2018.
For fun, we looked at her bio on the ISP site from 2013 at age 3.5. Adrianna’s stated: “When she is not being a secret ‘Kindness Bandit’, she loves puzzles, kitty cats, dance class and her favorite show, Peppa Pig. Oh, and she wants a puppy.”

Bella
I am Isabella or “Bella” for friends and family. I am the oldest of two daughters in a loving family of four.
Accustomed around outgoing parents, I have found myself engaged in various activities. From enjoying all types of sports to baking cakes to capturing precious moments on a camera, I enjoy learning a wide range of skill levels. This helps me improve my social skills where I take risks and meet different people that turn out to be new friends. Friends are essential for a happy life. I believe that a healthy and happy mindset is important for success. Success does not necessarily include monetary richness or working as a doctor; instead, I believe that a happy and sustainable lifestyle is truly the dream, regardless of materialistic values.
