Volunteering in Peru
 Enriching the Lives​ of Children ​in Peru - Huaraz.
​


​A well established NGO in operation since 2006, Seeds of Hope provides a safe environment to help impoverished students of all ages to achieve academic and social success.
​
To achieve this, we use a multi-faceted approach, combining tutoring, emotional well-being classes, daily nutritious meals and a family environment focused on educational success.  

About Us

The mission of Seeds of Hope is to support children living in extreme poverty in Huaráz, Perú and to provide vocational training for those without economic means, enabling them to break the cycle of poverty.

We provide a supportive environment in which the students obtain help and encouragement with their homework. ​Higher education students also receive support financially, emotionally and through resources and a safe space to study. Our students are also taught the importance of personal hygiene, nutrition and provided with a nutritious meal at the end of each session. 

Our Students

Our students start at age 6 and reach all ages, from primary school, through secondary and into a range of higher educational paths. These students come from some of the poorest families in Huaráz, Perú. Each one deserves an education and an opportunity to improve their economic circumstances.

We recognize that our students need to overcome economic disadvantages and many other barriers to succeed in their education. Seeds of Hope aims to ensure the children have everything they need to succeed in their education with support from local and international volunteers.

Volunteer with Us

At Seeds of Hope, volunteers make up the majority of our workforce and are very important to the day-to-day running of the school, and the support we are able to give to each student.

​We need volunteers all-year-round to help at Seeds and, although we do not ask for any specific qualifications, a desire to support children's education with an open mind is vital! Whether you’re on vacation in Perú, taking a gap year or career break, or retired, join Seeds of Hope for the experience of a lifetime.
