I have spent four unforgettable months with the children of Mundo de Niños. It was one of the best times of my life.

The end of 2017 and the start of 2018 showed a high commitment for Mundo de Niños, embodied by two special donations:

Get Rhythm charity concert:

Each year in December, the band “Get Rhythm” plays for a good cause: the money paid for the entrance tickets is then donated to various charity projects. Mundo de Niños could also receive a part of these donations for the second time in two years. The success was big and the band could donate 300€ in 2016 and 400€ in 2017 for our project!

I spent four wonderful months with the children of Mundo de Niños. I was very impressed by this place as they all live together as a big family, whether they are tutors, teachers or kids.

A new school year has begun!

After several weeks of nice and warm holidays, our kids had to go back to school today.

It is hard to sum up with words experiences one has made – especially when these experiences are so important to you. But I will try to do so in these lines.

In the past weeks, the Street Work area organised two activities in Huanchaco, in the social disadvantaged sectors Victor Raul and El Trópico. The activities were organised around the topic of how to responsibly use water. As you may know, in these sectors as well as the peripheral zones of Peruvian cities, people do not alway have an easy access to water. In many parts of these zones, there is no water connection, the only alterntive being water containers to be placed on the roofs, which are expensive.

If August is the month of summer for us from Europe and the month of winter for Peru, it is also the anniversary month for Mundo de Niños!

During my first year of Specialised Education studies in France, I decided to live an adventure in which I would share experiences with socially challenged youth. I wanted this adventure to take place in a context completely different from the French context.
