Decades ago, Pastor Lee Jong-Rak woke to find a baby freezing on his doorstep with nothing more than a cardboard box to protect the infant from the blustery winter wind. This horrifying discovery eventually led him to install a “drop box” in the wall of his home, which would provide a safe way for people to
anonymously leave unwanted babies. Since its inception, more than 2,000 newborns have been left in the box, a service that is entirely funded by private donations. In addition to the temperature-controlled box, the church also offers help to single mothers faced with this difficult decision, such as temporary shelter, food, and monetary support. Funding from Grand Circle Foundation has helped clean the facility, built a rooftop storage shed for winter clothes, diapers, formula and other goods, as well as sponsored a much-needed rooftop recreation area.
