Peruvian Outreach Project Inc

The Peruvian Outreach Project currently supports three projects: the Children’s Center for Integrated Service (CCIS), the Aldea Orphanage and Hogar Hermelinda.

CCIS is a partnered project between the Peruvian Outreach Project and Illary Sumaq, a nonprofit in Peru. The CCIS project is for children aged three to twelve who have learning disabilities. The CCIS program will provide individual and group sessions to strengthen students’ educational and social skills. The goal of these sessions is to help the participants improve skills, express emotions, and make connections. This project was started in 2025.

POP has helped the Aldea Orphanage by repairing broken playground equipment, setting up a sewing workshop, reviving the orphanage's bakery, providing classroom computers, and establishing an on-site medical clinic and music workshop. The sewing workshop allows the children to learn new skills that can help them in the future. The children enjoy learning how to play instruments and they have fun taking weekly music lessons. POP also helps with the annual Christmas party at the orphanage and provides gifts for the children. This project was started in 2020.

The Hogar Hermelinda is a support and housing program to allow young women to attend university. Because many women in Peru do not have the resources to continue their education, the Hogar Hermelinda fulfills a critical need. The first group of six program participants are studying to become nurses and will be graduating in 2025. This project was started in 2022.

We would like to thank everyone that supports our projects! You can follow our progress with each project on our website or on our social media accounts.
