Most Common Use Cases — Medical Fundraising in Argentina

🏥 Urgent Surgeries and Medical Operations

The cost of surgery in Argentina can be very high, especially for treatments not fully covered by social security (obra social) or PAMI: oncological surgeries, transplants, orthopedic prosthetics, fertility treatments. Argentine families use SAPEO to quickly mobilize their network in Argentina and among the diaspora in Italy, Spain and France.

Average amount raised in a successful medical campaign: €1,500 – €15,000

💊 High-Cost Medications and Chronic Treatments

Diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, breast cancer or rheumatoid arthritis require expensive monthly treatments. Many Argentine families cannot cover these costs through the public or private system. A fundraiser on SAPEO allows receiving recurring donations from the whole community.

⚰️ Funerals and Bereavement Costs

Funeral costs in Argentina can easily exceed $500,000 ARS. For families with limited resources or facing a sudden loss, an online fundraiser on SAPEO allows raising the necessary funds in just a few hours through WhatsApp and Facebook groups.

🎓 Education and Scholarships Abroad

Many young Argentines want to study in Europe (Spain, Italy, France) but lack the resources for initial costs: flights, first month rent, visa fees. A fundraiser on SAPEO with the support of family and friends can make that dream possible.

🌍 Humanitarian and Community Projects

Argentine associations in Italy, Spain or France use SAPEO to fund solidarity projects in Argentina: wheelchairs for public hospitals, flood reconstruction, support for soup kitchens in Greater Buenos Aires.
