The Christmas event was made by the foundation Steps of Hope for all the children in the Hospital Pablo Tobón Uribe. Many of these children have been hospitalized for months and do not have the opportunity to go out or play because of the severity of their illness. The event was a success, we shared with the children an afternoon full of games, puppets, Santa Claus and most importantly, we saw in each child a gratifying smile, forgetting the hard problems they have to face daily.
