What Coaniquem does

COANIQUEM is a Chilean non-profit foundation (fundación) headquartered in Santiago at Avenida San Francisco 8586, Pudahuel, that delivers free, comprehensive rehabilitation services to children and youth up to 20 years of age who have suffered burns or scarring. The organization operates four rehabilitation centers — in Santiago, Concepción, Antofagasta, and Puerto Montt — supplemented by 21 regional coordination offices spanning from Arica to Punta Arenas, giving it national coverage. Each center offers an integrated suite of medical specialties including surgery, dermatology, physiatry, kinesiology, pediatrics, psychology, occupational therapy, music therapy, nutrition, and nursing, alongside social services and a custom compression garment workshop (Taller de Prendas). The Santiago location additionally bundles free transportation, lodging, meals, and hospital schooling (Colegio Hospitalario), and operates the CASABIERTA residence for out-of-town and international patients.

The foundation operates a donation-funded revenue model: all rehabilitation services are provided completely free of charge, with no fees to patients or families. Operating funding is sourced from individual and corporate donations, the Tiendas Solidarias retail operation that resells donated clothing, household goods, and electronics, an online social product storefront, school envelope fundraising campaigns across Chilean schools, and volunteer-driven community initiatives. Patient referrals flow in via formal interconsulta from public or private healthcare providers or through emergency care certificates, with a 24/7 WhatsApp SOS line (+56934319987) providing pediatric burn guidance. COANIQUEM also runs complementary programs including burn prevention education (Programa de Prevención, DEDI), applied research (Programa de Investigación), a professional training program for healthcare workers in burn rehabilitation, and an international program that treats children from outside Chile.
