Martin de Porres was the illegitimate son of a Spanish nobleman and a freed slave of African Descent, which is why his patronage is for multi-racial people. He is also associated with racial harmony and public services, such as schooling and health, because he established an orphanage and childrenÔs hospital for the poor children of the slums.
