Pasitos de Luz is Marking Cerebral Palsy Day Throughout October

San Vicente, Nayarit – Pasitos de Luz is running an awareness and fundraising campaign throughout October to mark World Cerebral Palsy Day, which was on October 6th. The message of our campaign is #NothingCanStopUs.

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common physical disability in childhood; about 1 in 345 children in the United States have been identified with it! At Pasitos de Luz we care for 14 children with CP, ranging in ages from 2 years old to teenagers.

CP happens when the brain can’t properly send messages to muscles to move in well-coordinated ways. CP affects other body functions that involve motor skills and muscles, like breathing, bladder and bowel control, eating, and talking. It definitely makes living life much more difficult!

NOTHING CAN STOP US

At Pasitos de Luz we believe that all children with CP should be given the opportunity to live the best life possible and not be held back by their disability. That’s why this year we’re shouting out loud NOTHING CAN STOP US!

We do everything we can to help them live this best life. We make sure that they eat nutritious breakfasts and lunches every single day, and also provide them with the physical therapy, hydrotherapy and special education they need to reach important milestones, like crawling, standing up and walking. ALL AT NO COST TO THEIR FAMILIES.

DONATE TODAY and give even more kids with CP a helping hand to be the best version of themselves. We currently have 21 children with CP on our waiting list, which is why we are asking for donations, to be able to start providing services to these kids.

Located north of Puerto Vallarta near San Vicente, Nayarit, Pasitos de Luz is a marvelous day care facility for children with special needs. This non-profit organization provides children with various handicaps with a caring and loving environment, along with treatment for individual rehabilitation, nutritional meals, physical stimulation and therapy.
