Help Luz Maribel Valdez De La Cruz Heal and Thrive

Donation protected
Luz Maribel Valdez De La Cruz, a 15-year-old from the Dominican Republic, has been battling serious health issues since she was two and a half years old. Due to a need for extensive medical procedures, including the reconstruction of her esophagus, stomach, and colon, she is fed through a gastrostomy tube. Her family struggles financially to afford the daily cost of her nutritional supplements, including 14 jars of Ensure Plus and other expensive treatments. Despite these challenges, Luz Maribel has shown remarkable strength.

A foundation in Boston has assisted her in obtaining a visa to travel to the U.S. for surgery in hopes of improving her condition. To support her recovery, a fundraising campaign has been launched to purchase an iPad, providing Luz Maribel a way to pass the time during her surgery recovery.
