Empowering Lives: Creaghan Harry’s Commitment to the Children of Niños del Sol

In 2016, Creaghan Harry encountered the urgent needs of the Children of the Sun, a small orphanage home to about 25 children. Each child, born with HIV and abandoned, faced a challenging reality. Despite the dedication of the caring staff, the orphanage struggled financially. During his first visit, Creaghan felt a deep sense of responsibility to help; he recognized that these children needed hope—hope that could only come from stability and love. This moment marked the beginning of his profound connection with Paola Velásquez and the remarkable children at Niños del Sol.Creaghan quickly stepped up to provide financial support for the orphanage, ensuring that basic necessities like food and electricity were covered. His visits became filled with joy, as he engaged in countless hours of soccer, tree climbing, and playful antics, all while sharing meals and reading stories. The children, full of spirit, would often cling to his legs, pleading for him to stay longer. It was clear to Creaghan that they needed more than just occasional visits; they craved lasting relationships.Recognizing this need, Creaghan returned to his company and invited employees to become big brothers and sisters to the children, emphasizing one crucial requirement: they must remain involved in the kids’ lives regardless of changes in their personal or professional circumstances. The response was overwhelming, leading to meaningful matches between the children and caring adults. This support allowed the kids to blossom, as they now had stable connections that enriched their lives.Today, Paola Velásquez continues her incredible work with the children, embodying a true gift to the world.
