Statistics speak loud about inequalities and poverty in Chile. In one mountain, the
wealthiest students of the Adolfo Ibanez business school would eagerly daydream
successful careers and salaries; in another, not so far, the children of the Pincoya
would face the daily realities of drugs, alcohol, violence, poverty and misery.
Misericordia, a heart in the misery in Latin, aims at giving a hopeful response to this
unbearable reality by reaching out women, men and children in their miseries, sharing
with them their burdens, accompanying and supporting them; it is a beating heart of
fraternity when despair appears overwhelming.
