Since 2008 we have assisted and accompanied thousands of mothers, aunts and grandmothers (caregivers women) who make journeys from the interior of the country to ensure the treatment of their children, and children and adolescents with chronic pathologies who smile and sing in front of the adversities.
Their stories of bravery and courage are the example we need to continue our work, they need you almost as much as the country needs their sacrifice and perseverance to get ahead.
