ICA
ReportLocation: ICA /HUANCAVELICA, PERU
The project is a self-financed initiative that was born in March 2013 as a pilot in the annex of San Jose De Challaca, a small rural community in the department of Huancavelica about 4 hours from the city of Ica. A project full of dreams and a beautiful way to go.Given the need for lack of intervention of organizations that help the development of these communities with high poverty rate, problems of family violence, alcoholism and the concentration of NGOs in the capital, in departments such as Cuzco, and the Amazon of our country, also the lack of intervention by local governments and after having touched many doors decide to do something on their own and believing in solidarity as a way of life
From 2013 to date it has been growing with many difficulties, but it has also been a path of much learning and the family has been growing with project coordinators, communities and volunteers. Now the project extends to the city of Ica where there are many people who have migrated from different communities of Huancavelica, Ayacucho etc, looking for a better future, but sometimes it is not like that. In our different programs we seek to benefit children / youth, adults, older adults because we believe that the human being is important at every stage of their life and always an opportunity all deserve.
Everyone can join and share our mission and vision together to co-create new projects with social impact.
