"You can’t imagine how grateful I am"
 Only 9 years old and suffering cerebral palsy, Guillermito wants to live like a normal child and strives to achieve it. At the beginning of 2008, his mother, Marisol Ordóñez, requested the Junta de Beneficencia de Guayaquil a wheelchair to take him to the regular school he attends and also to the neurologic rehabilitation center where he receives therapy.
“Junta de Beneficencia solved all our expenses"
Four children were born that day, and their names are: Bernardita de los Milagros (Miracles), Jesús de los Milagros, María de los Milagros and Carmita de los Milagros. Their mother with great emotion tells what she felt when she found out that she was expecting four girls.
I was filled with emotion, and cried very much when I heard the news, I couldn’t imagine having four children, but they are a blessing, above all, because they were born healthy and without any problem

"I know now that I have a new opportunity to live”
 These are the words of 67 years old Rosa Villacís, who had implanted a cardio fibrillation three months ago, in Luis Vernaza’s Hospital, because she suffered of ventricular tachycardia and a severe arrhythmia that ended in a severe homodynamic deterioration and syncope. I never felt anything, reason why I didn’t go to the Hospital, but suddenly I began to suffocate. I only remember entering the Hospital with a strong arrhythmia, and they gave me an electroshock and morphine to soothe the pain.
“Junta gave me the opportunity to grow"
Milena Apolinario, from the canton of Libertad, entered the orphanage Hogar Calderón Ayluardo when she was six years old due to a difficult home situation. Her mother, an illegal immigrant from Colombia, was pregnant, and her father had passed away. Her family did not have the economic means to adequately support Milena and her younger sister.
This girl’s home, run by the Junta de Beneficencia de Guayaquil, granted Milena a place to live, as well as food, clothing and education in a private school in Guayaquil. She also received constant spiritual guidance from the nuns at the orphanage congregation.
