“When the Foundation approached me with the opportunity to photograph these children, I was thrilled,” said Raúl De Molina, co-host of El Gordo y La Flaca. “I got to dust off my camera and take some amazing shots for a great cause. I couldn’t be more proud of the end result, and more importantly, the organization benefitting from the calendar.”
Raúl De Molina officially became a Celebrity Ambassador for Miami Children’s Health Foundation in 2014 to support Together for the Children, The Campaign For Miami Children’s, a $150 million endeavor led by the foundation to benefit Nicklaus Children’s Hospital.
“It was an honor to have Raúl de Molina photograph our incredible patients and dedicated staff, and we are excited to release this calendar that will benefit the children and families at Nicklaus Children’s,” said Lucy Morillo, president and CEO, Miami Children’s Health Foundation.
Raul also covers all major events for Univision, including the World Cup, New Year’s Eve in Times Square and the Latin Grammys. Raúl graduated from the Art Institute of Fort-Lauderdale before beginning his career as a photographer. His work has appeared in many publications including TIME, Newsweek, Life, and Paris Match. In the 90’s, he appeared on the Joan Rivers Show several times to discuss his photographs, and he was so charismatic and engaging that Telemundo offered him his own show. Since then, he has been a hugely influential TV personality in the Spanish-speaking market and was named one of the most influential Hispanics in the U.S. by People en Español.
