Victor Diaz’s Story

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwxjA7ong1Q

The video shows the story of Victor Diaz, a 10-year old child, nicknamed “Zafrada” after he repeatedly asked for zafradas (misspelling the word “frazada”-blanket-) to cover from cold after his family lost everything in the earthquake. It is a sad but beautifull story that somehow reflects the story that thousands are living nowadays in Chile. The situation is getting worst now that rains are comming, and despite all the efforts the government has undergone through, working literally 24/7, there is still a lot to do for all these families to get back to their feet and start living and dreaming again.

Thanks Angelica for the link & info!
