June 4th 2018, 23 year old Hans Hernandez, a Nicaraguan youth, had his left eye severely injured by a rubber bullet, causing his retina permanent damage. Hernandez will be receiving support from Chavalos in order to undergo surgery for a prosthetic eye.
We are working with Programa de Prótesis Ocular para Estudiantes, organized by a medical professional based in Nicaragua aiding injured locals.
We will be providing updates and uploading photos to document his journey towards recovery.
