At the beginning of March, we began the construction of our "Casa De Luz", the first pediatric hospice in South America, where we will provide quality, compassionate and with their relatives palliative care to children in their final stage of life. The place will have 9 family rooms, where the child's family could be as long as necessary. We will have a team specialized in palliative care, such as nurses, TENS, psychologists and volunteers from Quino who have been training for this accompaniment for a year, under the foundations of psychiatrist Elisabeth Kubler - Ross, who dedicated her life to the accompaniment of the dying.
We have not yet obtained 100% of the financing, so we ask you not to forget us and make your donations through GlobalGiving.
Thank you!
