One family would have more than a face, they would have faces (each person has a face). Are you saying that you have brought smiles to one family (I would guess this means the same family) for every day in the past 40 years?

Re: Please modify my sentence
So I can write it as:
We are proud that we have brought smiles to one family for every day in the past 40 years
or
We are proud that we have brought smiles to one family every day in the past 40 years

Are you saying that you brought smiles to one family (the same family) every day (that is 365 days a year) for 40 years (that is about 14,600 days)? What did you do every day to make this one family so happy?
