With millions of children born with birth defects every year, conditions such as cleft palate are more common than you may think.
Children suffering with these conditions have long been subjected to teasing, name-calling and, of course, horrible stares – all because they look different.
Now more than ever, people tend to fixate on someone’s outward appearance to such an extent that they overlook the beauty that lies within every person. Can you imagine how it must feel to have people staring at you every day? Or how it feels to be rejected in this way? Sadly, that's the reality for so many children.
It’s so awful to think about that many of just block it out. But, at HOPE, we're determined to give these children a better, kinder future.
We have partnered with Italian designer Giovanna Kaka to launch a range of ultra-chic beanies, with all proceeds being used to fund reconstructive surgery for children born with physical birth defects.
Together, we can ensure that these children – like all others – enjoy the happy and full lives that they deserve.
