Artistic intervention: MATER Corporation is filled with colors!

In our Diagnostic Center, located in the San Miguel district, we lived a day of volunteering full of art and love, giving even more life to our facilities through an artistic intervention in various murals of the center.

During the activity, Renate Neumann, Chilean artist and muralist, who was in charge of the creation and development of the work, together with a group of students from Tabancura School and part of our team, painted the designs in different corners of the Corporation, where we perform more than 14 thousand examinations a year to children from all over Chile.
