Protect 300 girls from Child domestic work in Peru

Dear Supporters,

This year we want girls in child domestic labor who participate in Sunday sessions at La Casa de Panchita to have the opportunity to enjoy the cultural offer of Lima. We have taken them several Sundays - while the weather was still warm - to the Water Park, which has many fountains in which to play. We also took them to see a theater play for children. They had never been to the theater and some girls did not know what a theater was. They liked it very much and for them it was a very valuable experience!

At the end of the day we asked:

How did you feel at La Casa de Panchita?

• "I felt happy and I laughed" (Mara, 10 years old)
• "I loved the food and I could repeat" (Karla, 11 years old)

What did you learn today?

• "I learned not to be ashamed and many new things. I also laughed a lot" (Ximena, 10 years).
• "I learned about domestic child labor and, at the theater, that dreams can come true" (Anahí, age 13)
• "I met some theater actors today and I really liked it because I had never been to the theater" (Alison, 14).
• "I like my storybook [which she received as a gift]; I'm going to show it to my mom" (Cristina, 9 years old).

All this is possible thanks to your support. Thank you!

Best regards, 

Blanca Figueroa
