Project Report | Mar 13, 2019
Andrew, an amazing kid!

By Mariola Fumero | Executive Director

Andrew
Andrew

Andrew Zuñiga is a unique and splendid child. He is 7 years old, and he loves to play. Andrew is also autistic, a condition that has not prevented him from developing and getting ahead like any other. He is part of a school for children with special needs. Since he started attending the foundation, he not only plays with other children, but also attendes cooking, English and art classes; being these last two his favorites.

His mother, Tatiana, told us that since he started coming he plays without problems. She ensures that the noise bothered him before, but now he pays attention to what he does and what other children do, rather than being distracted or upset while surrounded by other kids. Andrew dreams of being a teacher when he grows up.
