Sometime ago I meet Cruz. She said to me 'No one is so poor that cannot help others and does not have anything to give'. She doesn't have much, lives in a house with no running water nor sewage, she takes care of her adult daughter with developmental issues, but she volunteers. We have so much, we can help others.

The National Institute of Children Health (INSN for the initials in Spanish) have existed in Lima for decades. Children for all parts of the country arrive there to get life saving medical services. Many of them live in extreme poverty. Their parents already made many sacrifices just to get them to the hospital and arrive to Lima without money left or a place to stay. Please, join me and let's make possible for them to get the medical help they need.

The money collected will be used to pay for things that can't be covered by any insurance the children can't get like prosthetics. Every case is analyzed by the hospital social services team and they tell me they have about 2 cases per department (of about 20) every week where the child requires donations to pay for what is needed.

Thank you for your kindness.

Hi Everyone, I wanted to give you all an update on my trip to Peru. I spent several hours at the children hospital talking to the social services assistants, mothers and doctors, running around buying, shopping for the best deals on medicines. And I spent a lot of money paying. . . . .
