Our Mission: Celebrating resilience, Confronting prejudice
Begun 3 years ago, The Girl Behind The Face is a Hong Kong based not-4-profit entity.
Bullying & cyberbullying forced us to go public.
Our challenge: Breaking down barriers to visible differences & non visible differences
We believe passionately in confronting prejudice and celebrating resilience.
Actions are more important than words.
Climbing a mountain doesn't teach you life skills for success... life does that!
Invite us to share a Family / Parent Talk at your school, NGO, company or group

Tina and I were told sport would never be possible for Mui.
We, as parents,
have never accepted limits like that.
Nothing is impossible.
Mui is now a qualified and experienced rugby referee.

Tina says:

This is a mother's story of one woman (Tina)
who refused to walk away from a rejected child...
and all that happened then...

We agreed to become Mui's volunteers for a few weekends one summer.
We remained her volunteers for seventeen months .
We put our lives on hold. People kept telling us to walk away.
Tina's dedication was immense.
Then events overtook us.
Our response was to step forward and adopt.
We were diving into the unknown...
