In 2019, Mason was born with Down syndrome, and as sometimes is the case with children having this condition, he also had a heart defect.

Solomon and Shadrack are 11-year-old twin boys living in Uganda. They live with their 72-year-old grandmother, their younger sister, and a cousin.

So far, these funds have enabled 16 children in China to have cleft lip or palate surgeries at Gansu Provincial Hospital.

20 Years of Hope: Our 1st Cleft Exchange, Dr. Padilla, and Sydney & Reagan
In late 2003, when Love Without Boundaries was just a few months old as a foundation, we were approached by a medical team that wanted to set up a cleft surgery mission to China. We never in a million years would have attempted something as complex as sending a team of physicians to a foreign […]
