Cross Catholic Outreach helps Antorcha de Vida (Torch of Life) in Ecuador improve the quality of life for 76 children with disabilities and special needs, especially those from low-income families. This important ministry provides vital physical and occupational therapy for children like 4-year-old Melanie with Down syndrome, whose poor parents struggle to maintain a steady income and give her the care she needs. With our support, Antorcha de Vida is able to offer Melanie hope for a better future through a loving staff that is working to strengthen her health, fine motor skills and education.
