Empower Peruvian Women Living in Poverty

Empowering Girls in Rural Peru: Planting Seeds of Change

At Globalteer, we understand that when girls are empowered, entire communities flourish. In the rural villages of Peru, where access to education and equal opportunities remains a daily challenge, our work focuses on equipping young girls with the tools they need to build confident, independent, and fulfilling lives.

Listening, Learning, and Lifting Up

In these underserved areas, girls often grow up with limited choices. Many face cultural norms that discourage them from staying in school or speaking up about their dreams. Through close collaboration with local families and teachers, we’ve tailored our approach to reflect the realities these girls face—ensuring our programs are relevant, respectful, and deeply rooted in community engagement.

Education as a Foundation for Opportunity

At the heart of our initiative is the belief that education is not just about schoolbooks—it's about empowerment. Our team delivers literacy support, life skills sessions, and creative learning opportunities that boost confidence and help girls reimagine what’s possible. From homework help to future-planning workshops, we offer a safe and nurturing environment where learning becomes a pathway to self-worth and freedom.

Creating Safe Spaces to Grow

Beyond academics, we focus on emotional well-being. Our girls’ groups and mentorship circles provide a supportive space where young participants can express themselves freely, build strong peer connections, and explore topics like leadership, health, gender equality, and self-advocacy. These sessions are guided by local facilitators and visiting volunteers who act not only as teachers but as role models.

Stories of Growth and Possibility

In recent months, our work in a highland village outside Cusco has seen powerful results. One of our interns led a series of interactive workshops with a small group of girls aged 10 to 14. The sessions covered confidence-building, communication, and rights awareness. One girl, previously shy and hesitant, stood before the group to share her dream of becoming a teacher—something she had never shared before. Moments like this show the transformation taking place, one girl at a time.

Together, We Are Changing the Future

Thanks to your support, we are creating lasting change in communities where girls too often go unheard. Your contributions help fund vital resources like books, materials, and trained facilitators, allowing us to reach more girls with programs that nurture hope, courage, and possibility.

We are incredibly grateful for your belief in this mission. With your help, we are not only changing lives—we are changing what’s expected of them.

With heartfelt thanks,
