The Alto Belén kindergarten in Hogar de Cristo became the epicenter of a delicious event when the little ones came face to face with the star protagonists of the day: Marraquetín and the endearing Mr. Panadero. In the blink of an eye, their expressions went from expectation to absolute wonder.
“Episodes like these give deep meaning to much of the work we do with families and children,” shares Estrella Alba, preschool educator and director of the Alto Belén Garden. “The nice thing is that not only do the children celebrate, the mothers also dance and sing as if they were girls again, it's great.”

That Indupan collaborates with the Hogar de Cristo programs. She has repeatedly offered delicious breakfasts to the elderly in the foundation's Shelters, also bringing delicious delicacies, music and dancing.
This year it was the turn of the Alto Belén kindergarten, located in Bajos de Mena, in Puente Alto, which welcomes children from 136 families, 80 percent of which are headed by a woman.
“As a mother, it is very nice to see the love that is given to your son, it moves me, one does not always have the resources to celebrate in this way, it is a gift,” said a very emotional mother from the Hogar de Cristo garden.
