Living Heart: Improving the Lives of Children
 |
| Children from the primary school in
Rumira thank Living Heart for a gift of educational
toys and materials. |
The NGO Living Heart was formed in August of 2007 with the
goal to improve the lives of the Andean children and women
within the communities of the Sacred Valley, near Cusco,
Peru.
Living Heart is an association without profitable aims.
The actions and programmes have been developed to combine
educational strategies, conservation, nutritional and health
advice, include family planning support, with the purpose of
promoting sustainable development and improving the quality
of life for the Andean people. This work is particularly
aimed at benefiting the lives of disadvantaged children.
Living Heart is currently working with five communities.
Current projects include; providing breakfasts,
educational activities and supplies for schools, organizing
art and theatre classes for children, providing seeds and
plants so schools can create scholastic organic gardens, and
organizing doctor visits to communities. Read about more of
the projects on the Projects
page.
