A foundation created by Chinese pop diva Faye Wong and her film star husband Li Yapeng was launched here Tuesday to help children born with cleft palates.

Yan Ran Angel Foundation, named for Li’s daughter, will help children under 14 years old.

The foundation was launched after Wong and Li’s five-month-old daughter Li Yan recovered from plastic surgery for her cleft palate.

The couple donated one million yuan (125,000 U.S. dollars) to start the foundation in collaboration with the Red Cross Society of China (RCSC). Donations to the foundation will be encouraged.
