A family in La Plata, Argentina, is navigating multiple severe hardships. Following a motorcycle accident in July, the family faced significant medical expenses and debt after a car struck their vehicle. The accident resulted in serious injuries for a female passenger and rendered their motorcycle, a primary source of income, unusable.

In October, the family’s situation was further complicated by the need to replace a cochlear implant processor for their seven-year-old daughter, Jazmín Solís. The device became unusable after its external components were removed and left in a school toilet. To cover the approximately $19,118 USD cost of the replacement, the family has organized a raffle featuring their motorcycle and a bicycle.
