Liu Min Hao's Cleft Lip Surgery
Liu Min Hao has recovered from his recent PFO-funded cleft lip surgery. He currently lives at New Hope Foundation in Beijing and is awaiting adoption.
The cost of this life changing procedure has recently declined to $350 per child due to a new clinic located closer to New Hope Foundation. Here are the pictures of Liu Min Hao…
Prayer Requests
