Help Children in China Love. Hope. Healing. Life.

Giving Every Child a Chance

We help families stay together by providing funding for medical procedures and providing support in cases where children have severe heart disease. Families who have children with heart disease in China are saved from making the terrible decision to give up their child simply because the family cannot afford the medical expenses of heart surgery.

Our initial work in China involved operating a foster home for orphaned and abandoned children with severe heart disease or defects. Due to changes in the country, we are no longer operating the foster home. We are thrilled to celebrate that many of the children formerly in our group home have been placed with a forever family. We now focus our work on providing medical care for children with severe heart disease so that they can stay with their biological parents. As we work directly with these families, we advocate for them and ensure they receive the highest quality care available.

Joshua’s mother was just 19 when she gave birth to him. Joshua had a hole in his heart, and he needed open heart surgery urgently. His parents, both camel farmers, had no way to pay for his medical needs. Miraculously, friends and family of Joshua’s parents came together to fund his first operation. But when it came time for his second life saving-surgery, they had nothing left to give. 

Joshua’s parents chose hope for their little boy anyway, and moved forward with his operation in Beijing. They didn’t know how in the world they would pay for it, but they knew Joshua was worth choosing hope for, no matter the cost.

A baby from the Morning Star Family Home had her surgery at the same hospital, and the two of them recovered from their operations right next to one another. When Joshua’s mother shared her story with our staff, the answer was yes. Joshua has now recovered from his surgery and returned home with his family to their camel farm up north, where they get to live their lives with a new hope for their son’s future.
