Felipe is a cheerful 9-year-old boy from Rancagua, O'Higgins Region, where he lives with his parents and siblings. When he was 4 years old, Felipe was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, for which he was transferred to the Exequiel González Cortés Hospital to receive cancer treatment.
Felipe was with his mother, Tania, in our Shelter House, and also in our Hospital College located in the same Exequiel González Cortés. After a year, he went to maintenance and returned to his hometown.

However, at the end of 2021 Felipe presented a relapse and had to restart cancer treatment, and a few days ago he entered our Rehabilitation Center to overcome some sequelae of cancer.
Felipe loves to cook, especially preparing krepes with fruit, and he also likes to come to the Foundation because he finds the therapies very entertaining.
Each of your donations helps us prepare a beautiful and loving Holiday Dinner party for Felipe and many other 300 children who will live this special time separated from their loved ones.
