1987 Chilean telethon

Charity event July 2018 July 2023 thumb|Chilean Telethon's logo The 1987 Chilean telethon was the seventh version of the solidarity campaign conducted in Chile, which took place on 4 and 5 December 1987. The theme of this version was "To Believe in Life." The poster boy was Victor Torres. This Telethon came out after a year's absence. The 1986 edition was suspended due to various reasons. That year also saw disasters: floods and storms in central Chile, as well as attacks and protests, but again that did not stop the exceeding of the target in 1985: $502,293,311. Justifications for the suspension of the 1986 edition First, 1986 saw changes to the Teletón's administration. These included the creation of a new organizing firm, the Fundación Teletón Teletón Foundation, and the reconstruction and enlargement that took place in the Teatro Casino, which was renamed to Teatro Teletón and given to the foundation. The second reason is due to time constraints related to Don Francisco, host of the Chilean Teletón. This was because its main show, Sábado Gigante (which had already 24 years in Canal 13), would be exported to Spanish International Network (later Univision) in the United States, and since 2 editions had to be produced in one week (1 for each network), less time was left for Don Francisco's other projects, the Teletón included. The third and final reason is due to the events in that year, which included the disasters mentioned above, and the hosting of the 1986 South American Games.
