Chilean Telethon's logo

For the fourth consecutive year Don Francisco conducted the telethon, which soon would become part of the history of Chile.[according to whom?] This version was characterized by the number of artists who supported this cause.[clarification needed] The amount raised was CL$ 202,436,220.[citation needed]

Among the controversies of this telethon, was the donation of an ambulance to that institution by the CNI (National Information Centre). According to the book La Era Ochentera (The Eighties Era), the telethon received a call from the CNI, to donate an ambulance, however Ximena Casarejos was not convinced that the CNI representative would make the donation. Eventually the CNI made the donation at 18:30 hours on 12 December 1981.
