20 Years of Hope: Carolyn

Posted on August 17, 2023

In the summer of 2017, a beautiful five-year-old girl named Carolyn first joined our Rangsei preschool in Cambodia. Her teachers found her to be an active and playful child, eager to please and quick to grasp new concepts. A little bit on the boisterous side, Carolyn sometimes needed to be reminded to speak more softly, […]

20 Years of Hope: Archie

Posted on August 10, 2023

A darling little boy whom we call Archie was born in 2017. Sadly, his birthfather disappeared just a few months after Archie was conceived, and nine months later, his birthmother left Archie when he was just eight days old. Thankfully, we were able to quickly place Archie into our Cambodia foster care program. He joined […]

20 Years of Hope: Oliver

Posted on August 3, 2023

Baby Oliver was born with Down syndrome in 2016, and his little heart was failing. Hope was also failing for his devoted parents as they tirelessly sought treatment for their beloved son. Oliver and his impoverished family touched many hearts in the LWB community when we ran a series of blogs on him and his […]

20 Years of Hope: Jackie

Posted on July 27, 2023

Teenage Jackie had been suffering from a heart defect her entire life. She had been diagnosed with a large ASD (atrial septal defect), a hole in her heart that should have been repaired when she was much younger. Because their parents were not able to care for them, Jackie and a sister were living with […]

20 Years of Hope: Twins Max and Matthew

Posted on July 20, 2023

In early September of 2010, a rural orphanage in Henan province called us about a tiny, five-pound baby who had recently been abandoned. Max, as he came to be called, had been found with a life-threatening intestinal condition that often requires surgery within the first 48 hours of life. We knew there was no way […]

20 Years of Hope: Raven

Posted on July 13, 2023

Little Raven was born in India in April 2020. Her parents were thrilled at the birth of their first child, but their excitement quickly turned to panic when they took her to her first check-up at 15 days old. Doctors discovered a hole (a ventricular septal defect, or VSD) in Raven’s heart but reassured the […]

20 Years of Hope: Megan

Posted on July 6, 2023

Megan is from one of the rural villages where we work in Cambodia. When Love Without Boundaries first set up projects along the border region with Thailand in 2016, she became part of our high school education program. In the impoverished area where she lives, the graduation rate is extremely low, as many kids must […]

20 Years of Hope: Cayden

We immediately took him to the hospital and named him Cayden. Following surgery and treatment for a nagging […]
