About
Meet Juan Manuel Pineda from NPH El Salvador during his visit to Minnesota this fall!
Juan Manuel joined the NPH family in El Salvador when he was almost 13 years old. Born with a cleft palate and having lost his legs in a house fire as a toddler, Juan had many physical struggles to overcome in addition to dealing with the trauma of losing his biological family at such a young age. At NPH he found a new forever family and discovered his musical talents. His travels to the US with student groups from NPH resulted in a connection with Shriners Hospital in Chicago where he would undergo several life-changing procedures. Juan also met a music producer in Chicago that helped record his songs that have now been heard around the world. Residing in his home country, Juan is now a thriving, independent 35-year-old.
In 2020, an author out of Chicago, IL published a book based on Juan’s life. Purchase your copy of Music Has Legs HERE.
