Meet 13-year-old Santiago. He was diagnosed with DMD- Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. He is losing many of his abilities. He cannot walk and needs help with many simple tasks. Santiago has more challenges, but his radiant smile has a magical way of cheering people up.

 

Santiago has several interests. He is a huge fan of Billie Eilish. Santiago is your typical 13-year-old boy, when he is not enjoying his favorite pastime sleeping, he can be found playing his video games. He is a bright boy who excels in science class. Santiago’s favorite food is cheeseburgers.  Santiago is known to be a humble and happy boy, too. Santiago, even though he is quiet and prefers to remain in his world, inspires everyone and makes our world a better place.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of The Broadrick Family Foundation, Santiago has received the wheelchair he needed!

This life-changing gift gives Santiago greater independence, comfort, and mobility. We are so grateful for your support in helping children like Santiago live more inclusive, empowered lives!
