According to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Peru has become the most food-insecure country in South America. Ongoing effects from the pandemic, inflation, and soaring prices are to blame and pushing more people into poverty - currently one in four Peruvians doesn’t have enough money to cover their basic food basket.
Although we have not yet received full funding to purchase and upgrade utensils, furniture, and equipment, we are still providing nutritious food to over 85 children on a daily basis. Given the increased need, we are committed to providing Lima's poorest and most vulnerable children a chance to live a healthy life with dignity.
They’ve prepared the enclosed video to express their gratitude for the support!
