To Whom it May Concern,
There used to be a portrait of a young girl for sale. Are there any more copies?
Kathy
Yes! We are offering “Jia: A Portrait of Hope” for sale on our main website. Please visit http://www.lovewithoutboundaries.com/special_programs_jia.cfm for more information. Thank you so much for your interest.
We are adopting a little girl who is a student in one of your Believe in Me schools. We have found two pictures of her, labeled with an American name. We just wanted to know if she is aware of the American name that you gave her? We are considering giving her an American name, and wanted to use the one you had chosen if she was already familiar with it. Thank you.
The children in our “Believe In Me” schools are not aware of the western names we give them when talking about them publicly and to their sponsors. We use these to comply with the CCAA and the Hague Treaty to protect the child’s identity.
We wish you the very best of luck with your adoption and hope you will keep us informed as things progress!
I came across your website from a friend on facebook. Last August I lost my son before he was even born at 7.5 months pregnant. Looking at these children brings me joy… I feel like a mother who has no child to care for. I’m wondering if you do opportunities for volunteers to come abroad. I don’t speak Chinese, so I don’t know how realistic my thought is but I thought it would be worth a try.
Thanks for your interest! LWB occasionally sends teams of volunteers to China to work with orphaned children, but usually the people who travel are certified either in the medical field (such as doctors, nurses, or physical therapists) or in special education. If you have a degree in a field that could benefit one of our program areas, we would encourage you to fill out a volunteer application online!
There are several groups who do allow short term volunteers to help with the children in their care. Some suggestions for groups to contact include:
The Starfish Foster Home in XiAn http://www.thestarfishfosterhome.org/dailyneeds.aspx and
Our Chinese Daughters Foundation in Beijing http://www.ocdf.org/volunteerchina/
Although this is is an issue primarily concerning Western countries, not China, I wonder if you would be interested in doing a post on bone marrow donations. Ethnic Asians, like all non-Caucasians, are under-represented in the donor registries, which makes it hard to find matches for Asian patients who need bone marrow or stem cell transplants. I recently discovered this via http://www.matchdevan.com/home.
We just returned home with our 2 daughters from Luoyang SWI in Henan Province. We are hoping you might have some information on the girls. Our youngest is Dang Qing Yun (3) birthdate 6-22-07 and our oldest Dang Yali (8) birthdate 4-4-02. Please contact me if you have info. Thank you
Congratulations on your new daughters! You can visit the following link to request information on children who were in an LWB program prior to their adoption: http://www.lovewithoutboundaries.com/RequestforChildInfo.cfm
