Project Peru

Project Peru is a small, lively, totally voluntary UK-based charity offering food, clothes, shelter, education, health and fun to those who live in our children’s refuge in the desert shanty towns of Lima, and giving ongoing and practical support to others who live in extreme poverty in the wider community. Our refuge in Zapallal, cares for over 50 children and offers real opportunities to children and staff alike.

Project Peru is aware of the local needs and responds accordingly.

Project Peru aims to provide ongoing financial and material support, while encouraging dignity and independence for all.
