(Alice can be seen in the middle of this photograph)
Several years ago Melanie visited Philippines and met Alice who had a cleft palette. Even in the poorest of communities poor Alice was bullied and victimised. Melanie, as she does everywhere, with children of all nationalities and religions, fell in love with Alice and vowed to assist her.
A short time later Melanie and her family and friends arranged for the finances and operation to take place. Last week Melanie met up with Alice again. What a beautiful child - Melanie has certainly touched this child and changed her life for the better.
