I'm a U.S. Roman Catholic, but am not familiar with this term. The speaker is from Ocosingo, Chiapas. She's speaking about the chapel of el Niñito Fundador, where some people are praying. That's it, as far as context is concerned. A google search reveals that many localities have a shrine to the el Niñito Fundador. What's a good English translation of this term? The Founder doesn't ring true to my ear, but I could be wrong.

Reference:
“El niñito fundador”,
La historia se remonta allá, hacia el final del tercer cuarto del siglo XIX, en 1874, cuando en la ciudad de México nace la congregación de religiosas católicas: Franciscanas de la Inmaculada Concepción”, de quienes el santo al que nos referimos y según las apariciones narradas, fue el encargado de que esta orden monástica se fundara.
