Hollie is Quite Jolly!

Look at that darling smile!   Sixteen-month-old Hollie has plenty of personality and is very social and outgoing. In fact, she loves to be out and about in crowded places in her stroller and talks and responds with giggles and glee when adults play with her.  Hollie is part of our Sanmenxia Foster Care Program in Henan, and we love reading about how she has bonded so well with her foster family, especially her foster grandmother. Every night when Hollie goes to bed, she wants to hear her grandmother’s voice to fall asleep. If the grandmother isn’t around, she will cry for her.

Endearing Jonathan

Jonathan has a very unusual nickname! He is known as “Small Six-Six” (translated directly from the Chinese) because he has six digits on his right hand. He tends to respond to this name more than his given Chinese name with his very endearing smile. Jonathan is two years and seven months old and has been in our Xiangtan foster care program in Hunan since October 2009.

John: LWB’s Featured Child of the Week

Just look at that face! Doesn’t John seem to be saying, “I’m looking for a few good sponsors. Do you know where I could find one or two?” John is a healthy four month old baby boy. He has been placed with a foster family in our Loudi Foster Care program in Hunan but still requires two sponsorships to be fully funded.

Colin and a Few of His Favorite Things

Colin is a charming 7-year-old boy in need of a forever family. Love Without Boundaries provided a foster family for him in 2009 in our Sanmenxia Foster Care program in Henan. We are thrilled that Colin has bonded beautifully with his foster family and is especially close to his foster grandmother, with whom he loves to take walks. If she allows him to help her, he will give up anything — even the chance to play with his friends!

Rusty’s Smile — Worth a Thousand Words!

When I read the LWB foster care reports each month, it always bring me such joy when I see a photo of a child with a big, spontaneous smile.  In every report we have received about two-year-old Rusty and his personality, abilities and needs, there is one thing that never changes:  HE IS ALWAYS SMILING!

Brandon the Whistleblower

Brandon is a lively and sweet three-year-old boy with a repaired cleft lip and unrepaired cleft palate who has been in the Shantou Foster Care program for almost a year now. If you were to visit his foster home, you’d likely find Brandon enjoying a good game of hide-and-seek with his little friends, or maybe staying close beside his foster mom as she goes about the day’s housework—he loves to “help” with the daily chores as most three-year-olds do.

Sir Ciaran, Gentleman of Loudi

Ciaran is a wonderful four-year-old little boy in our Loudi Foster Care program in Hunan. He lives with Down Syndrome, so his speech development is a bit slower, but his understanding is excellent. He is a polite little boy who is quick to run to get a stool for his foster mom when she comes in from outside. He is quick to be obedient and enjoys collecting his toys and putting them away after playtime. What a happy helper he is!

Diana: LWB’s Featured Child of the Week

Diana is a darling girl who has certainly been through a lot in her little life. She was brought to the attention of Love Without Boundaries in March this year when she was brought to our Anhui Cleft Healing Home. Diana was so tiny, weighing a mere 2kg! In addition to having a cleft lip and palate, she was thought to have been born prematurely.
