Providing corrective surgery for children born with facial deformities, nationally and worldwide.
The birth of a child is one of the most joyous experiences
in a parent’s life. But when the little one is disfigured, that joy
is tempered by sadness, guilt, and fear. Parents need to know that while
they may not have been able to prevent their child’s disfigurement,
they can do something to correct it. The Little Baby Face Foundation is
a valuable resource for learning all there is to know about a
child’s condition and obtaining the best available medical,
educational, emotional, and financial assistance.
“Reconstruction of a congenital facial birth defect is one of the most gratifying of all surgeries. The transformation of young, shy children into proud, self-confident children is truly amazing.”
— Dr. Thomas Romo III, President of the Little Baby Face Foundation |

Our Featured Children
You are invited to make these children’s dreams come true!
The Little Baby Face Foundation will periodically provide information
about some of the children on our waiting list—children waiting for
help to live normal lives without shame or ridicule.
There are a number of ways you can help. Gifts in any amount are deeply
appreciated and will quickly be put to use to help us treat these
children.
Sometimes individuals or groups choose to sponsor the entire cost of
treating a particular child. When their child comes to NYC for treatment
and recovery, the sponsor will be invited to spend time with him or her.
They and their family will also write directly to the sponsor about
their new lives.
The sooner your help is received, the faster these children can begin
living normal lives.
