Jared Copro, Age 4, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Jared has a psychosocial disability and suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). He is an out-patient of the Philippine Children Medical Center (PCMC). Jared is being raised by a single mum from Lucena City whose source of income is merely Php 200 a day as a fruit seller. The income is not enough to provide for the medication and treatment of the child. The mother decided to come to Manila and fortunately, got a place in ChildHaus that helps Jared with his medical treatment and daily needs. However, ChildHaus could not escape from the adverse effect of the pandemic that its food and medical supplies were no longer enough to provide for all the children under its care.

On December 16, 2020, the Chummy Chum Foundation gifted Jared a medical assistance fund as well big boxes of formula milk, a month supply of supplements and nutritious food, toys, coloring book set, along with grocery items for his family.
