Sebastián is 13 years old and was born in Yolombó, Antioquia. His smile brightens every place he goes, even though his journey hasn’t been easy. Since birth, he has faced the challenges of spina bifida with incredible strength and courage.

At the Foundation, we support him through a program of comprehensive rehabilitation: in-home care, early stimulation, motor skills development, art, music, and self-care training. Every small step, every movement, every note he learns to play is the result of his effort—and of the generosity of people who believe in his potential.

Thanks to donations, Sebastián also receives specialized medical care in orthopedics, urology, and cardiology, as well as important diagnostic exams to safeguard his health. In 2025, he continues his rehabilitation process, and your support can make all the difference in helping him move forward.

With your help, Sebastián can keep growing, creating, and dreaming.
Donate today and be part of his story of resilience.
