Why is Alberto Hurtado so important in Chile?

I think Alberto Hurtado was very important for Chile because he made awareness of the needs of poorer people and he help them. Father He also founded workshops to educate and train a decent work to the needy people.
Alberto Hurtado is the founder of Hogar de Cristo from sick people, poor or abandoned children who slept under bridges Mapocho River.
He was also a spiritual director of many young people for contribute to the formation of more lay Christians.
In Chile we consider Alberto Hurtado the patron of workers because it was he who watched over them. For example when he helped the stitching of shorts.
He is a pride for Chile because it is one of our unique holy.
Finally I would like to say Father Hurtado was a great person and helped many people without expecting anything in return.
