The Teletón charity campaigns in Peru and Chile both exceeded their 2026 fundraising targets. In Peru, Fundación Teletón Perú collected S/ 10,150,223, which was more than 10% above the initial goal of approximately S/ 9.8 million. During a recognition event at the Museo de Arte de Lima, the foundation honored contributors including Plaza Vea, Banco de Crédito del Perú, and América Multimedia for their support of rehabilitation opportunities for children. In Chile, the Teletón 2026 campaign raised $46,204,313,130 pesos, surpassing the target of approximately $44.25 billion pesos. The 27-hour event, held under the slogan “Súmate a lo que nos une,” concluded in the early hours of November 8 at the Estadio Nacional. The campaign saw significant contributions, including $3.3 billion pesos from the Confederation of Production and Commerce (CPC) and $1 billion pesos from businessman José Luis Nazar. Co-founder Mario Kreutzberger, known as Don Francisco, led the closing ceremonies and expressed gratitude to the Chilean population for their commitment despite a challenging economic climate. Following the main event, Kreutzberger and Guillermo Tagle, president of the Teletón Foundation board, led a recognition event for the volunteers, artists, and citizens who contributed to the campaign. The funds are intended to support the integral and free rehabilitation and inclusion of roughly 32,000 children and young people across 16 Teletón institutes, including new centers in the O’Higgins and Ñuble regions.
