Message of love from Death Cab for Cutie! Once a popular singer, has shown that sensitivity. A few days ago she sang in «Thalassa» on “Child’s Smile” and distributed thousands of smiles while wearing the wristband Smile, created by the nonprofit organization.

Having as a motto “The smile of every child is in our hands” the known cosmetics firm (whose muse is Despina) organized this special happening. The singer at the event, wrote her own message of love in the poster with her face, which dominated the entrance to the «Thalassa». Furthermore, said: “Stories with happy endings have to answer a smile.”

This was not the first time that Despina has supported “Smile of the child”, since in the past, last September to be more exact, along with Goin’ Through, NEVMA and Stelios Maximus, celebrating the last show of her tour, Despina donated part of the gainings with the concert to this association.

Christos Dantis says: “I got to the point of shame all this is happening, I would cease to be ashamed because I am Greek and love this country.” Despina Vandi adds: “We really know how we could get through this whole situation.”
