Ecuadorian UFC featherweight Marlon “Chito” Vera is one of the UFC’s most exciting up and coming prospects, and every time he fights he has one simple goal … put a smile on his daughter’s face.
Chito’s daughter, Ana Paula, was born with a rare syndrome called moebius. The condition makes it so that Ana cannot control her facial expressions or eye movement.
Chito steps in the Octagon every time with one simple goal and that is to win, and win so impressively that the UFC will give him a bonus so that he can use that to pay for the necessary surgery to give his daughter a smile.
This go fund me will be used to pay for his daughter’s surgery and to put a smile on her face. Chito would love to be able to get this for his daughter’s next birthday April 4, 2016.
Marlon and his family will be ever indebted to the kind people who help his daughter smile for the first time.
