Give Angelo a chance to live life to the fullest: Help him overcome his disability
Mission Child supports Angelo, a 13-year-old boy in Peru who has cerebral palsy. Although he loves going to school, his severe muscle pain and tension sometimes prevent him from attending. To pass the time, he enjoys watching investigative films. In order to continue to develop and live life to the fullest, Angelo requires specialized care and therapy. Since these treatments are expensive, he needs your help to access them regularly.
Why do we need your help?
Thanks to financial donations, Angelo was able to begin essential therapies such as physiotherapy, speech therapy, orthopedics and hydrotherapy. He has been receiving these treatments twice a week for three months, for a total of 18 sessions.
Donations have also helped fund his individual disability-friendly travel to therapy, as wheelchair mobility is a challenge in Peru.
These treatments are vital to improving his quality of life, but they are still expensive. Angelo still needs your help to continue receiving these treatments and continue on his path to a better life.
Testimony from Angelo’s grandfather after 3 months of therapy: "Compared to how he was when he was admitted, thank God he has improved a little thanks to hydrotherapy. His right hand, which he couldn’t lift away from his body, has now recovered about 30% mobility."
