Our
satellite projects send Bruce Peru volunteers into the most deprived
barrios where
the poorest children live.
Local volunteers are helping.
The
first two satellite centres are here, Cerro Pesqueda, and Las Palmeras.
On 08 November, this barren brick building - without water or electricity
( made available to us by the Mayor of Pesqueda) - was converted into
a three classroom mini school. Here 27 poor children are now preparing
to enter school. We have since opened 4 new satellites.

 Our campaign: "DON'T FEEL
SORRY FOR STREET CHILDREN!" is beginning to pick up momentum in
centres where lots of international tourists are encountering Peru's
child laborers on a daily basis.The object of the
campaign is to recruit volunteers from the tourist population who
visit Peru each year, | |
This is how we help the very poorest children of Huaraz to
become better nourished, clothed, medicated and most importantly:
educated.
