Family Gets a Special Surprise From Children’s Cancer Association

Sol Soria-Zuniga, a Hillsboro toddler got a special surprise earlier this month, when she received a large play structure in her backyard from a local supermarket. Sol is a gal on the go.  Having a place for his daughter to play has made a world of difference, Andy Soria, Sol’s father, said. “For us, it’s meant that when she’s feeling great we can spend a lot of our time outside,” Soria said. “She’s able to do a lot of physical activity, and so do we. It’s just fantastic not to have to be concerned, and have our kid be a kid, which she hasn’t been able to do for the better part of 15 months.”

The donation was made possible through Hillsboro Costco, Solowave and McCarthy Building Companies, which provided volunteers to work on the project.
