Miracle for Mateo is a 501(c)(3) public charity and nonprofit organization that was established in 2010 to support the Paredes Family when their son, Mateo Sebastian Paredes, came home on hospice care after spending the first four months of his life at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Baby Mateo was born with a congenital heart defect (CHD) called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) and the added complication of Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return (TAPVR). Baby Mateo lived for nine months, and now his memory lives on as other families are supported and offered financial help through Miracle for Mateo.

Miracle for Mateo provides financial support for families with dependent children who: have complex congenital heart disease or another life threatening illness, and are struggling through a lengthy hospitalization, are waiting for transplant, or who are living at home on hospice care.
