20 Years of Hope: Hayden

Posted on November 2, 2023

In early 2017, tiny Hayden came into the care of our former healing home in Uganda needing considerable TLC. He was sickly, weighing a scant 5 kilograms (11 pounds) at 13 months of age, and his parents were nowhere to be found. The nannies in the home got right to work loving on this precious […]

In early September of 2010, a rural orphanage in Henan province called us about a tiny, five-pound baby who had recently been abandoned.

In 2019, a charity working in the child trafficking field asked for our assistance in helping a 10-year-old boy named Lee escape his current situation.

When Baby Destiny first came into our care a year ago at six months of age, she was suffering from severe acute malnutrition and anemia and was overdue for immunizations.

What Is Cleft Lip and Why Does It Have to Be Repaired

Posted on October 21, 2022

Just one year after Love Without Boundaries was organized as a charity in 2003, we organized our very first cleft trip to China.

This LWB model […]
