由流行天后王菲和影星李亚鹏夫妇不久前成立的“嫣然天使基金会”今年制订了一个大计划。
根据此项计划，今年将会有400多名患“唇腭裂”的贫困儿童得到免费手术治疗。
王菲和李亚鹏的女儿于去年11月接受了“唇裂”整容手术，“嫣然天使基金会”就是以她的名字命名的，这项基金将专为那些14岁以下的唇腭裂儿童提供救助。
据新华社报道，“嫣然天使基金会”目前已筹集了共1200多万元的善款。
王菲和李亚鹏的女儿李嫣于去年5月27日出生。李亚鹏于8月份在其博客上公开了女儿患唇裂的消息。
李亚鹏在博客中说：“我和妻子并不是刻意隐瞒真相，只是这次关系到孩子，而且在极短的时间内有很多繁杂的手续要办，拖延了时间便迟了治疗，一切都是为了女儿能有一个好的求医环境。”（注：博客中原话）
之后，王菲带女儿前往美国接受整形手术。
“嫣然天使基金会”是在全国红十字会的支持下，由王菲和李亚鹏夫妇捐资100万元成立的。
