A great success! Bingo MATER online raised funds to prevent kidney damage in children across the country.

A night full of solidarity, emotions and great prizes, was what we lived on Friday June 9 in our MATER Bingo, a traditional event of our MATER Corporation held 27 years ago; where thanks to the support of our sponsors, collaborators and more than a thousand people connected throughout Chile and abroad, we were able to achieve our goal of raising funds for the realization of children's surgeries in regional hospitals.

During the day, we played bingos and binguitos, and raffled various raffles, thus distributing more than 200 prizes, and we also had the auction section, offering incredible experiences and products.

It was hosted by Nataly Chilet and Max Collao, in addition to the special participation of the winner of the last Viña del Mar Festival, Diego Urrutia, who surprised us all with an incredible humor routine.
