Step 4.- First Draft

¨Superheroes for a Smile¨
This group social founded by the doctor Patricio Andrade and his wife, have the objective of
give hope at many child that have oncological diseases. Along with other friends and
volunteers they have been developing this project. They are all common people, they do not
have any superpowers. Many of them are doctors, architects, teachers, students, etc. But they
have the desire to help others. This group has been in operation for some years and its
objective is to raise the self-esteem and happiness of children with illness. This social group
has performed some events to collect money and deliver to hospitals. I think this project done
by these people is very good because they give their time so that children with illness can
have a happy moment.

Step 5. - Final Draft

¨Superheroes for a Smile¨
¨Superheroes for a Smile¨ is a social group from the city of Quito with one objective in
common, to raise the state of children with oncological diseases. For this reason and with this
goal in mind, Dr. Patricio Andrade and his wife decided to create this group with friends and
other volunteers. The work they do is to provide a time of fun and entertainment for children
in hospitals that have oncological diseases and thus bring joy to children so that this way they
can overcome its difficulties with a positive attitude. So they do a different job, Dr. Andrade
along with the volunteers of the group dress up with costumes of characters of comics,
animes, films well known by the children. For example Superman, Captain America,
Kaliman, etc, are some of the costumes they wear. When children see their favorite characters
or heroes their happiness grows and this makes their mood great and at the same time gives
them the courage to continue their treatment in the hospital. Another way to help these
children is through donations, the group performs events where it collects money or other
necessary things for these children and their families. In conclusion I think that this social
group does a very good project because it is not interested in self-interest but is interested in
the benefit of people with difficulties.
