Please find a message from NHS Senior Julia Decker;

My name is Julia Decker and I am a Junior at Newton High School. For the past 4 years, I have been raising awareness and funds to help children in China and Cambodia get their lip and/or palates repaired. I have successfully raised enough money for 7 repair surgeries over the last 4 years. This started as a school project but has grown into so much more.

A cleft lip and/or palate is a split or opening in the upper lip or roof of the mouth or both. Babies with clefts have a difficult time eating and gaining weight. For the past five years, I have paired up with the organization “Love Without Boundaries” to help sponsor the repair surgeries of orphaned and vulnerable children who are unable to afford the care that they so desperately need.

I was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate and lived in an orphanage in Central China until I was three and a half years old. An anonymous donor sponsored my lip repair surgery which enabled me to drink formula and grow and thrive. It is my desire to pay it forward and help as many children as I am able.

I’m excited to share that I was recently matched with 2 babies awaiting surgery. If you would like to learn more about my project, please check out the link below or donate. Feel free to share my fundraiser on any social media platforms that you use.
