Ninos Del Sol Peru is working to raise this group of children to adulthood and empower them to break the cycle of poverty in their families for future generations.

We are raising the children as siblings in a loving family-style home in Urubamba and supporting them with academic enrichment, life skills training, gardening, yoga, nutritious foods, and lots of love.

We also provide an apartment in Cusco for the children who are interested in pursuing post-secondary education and provide them with financial and emotional support through university and into their careers.

Our co-directors are a couple who each have an extensive background in education, psychology, and working with adolescents.

Our facilities provide comfortable, clean housing for the kids and our staff and board are committed to our mission.

We also have a broad base of supporters who have visited our sites, met the kids, and believe strongly in what we're trying to accomplish.

We measure our progress through the academic achievements of the kids, as well as monitoring their emotional well-being.

Many of our kids are at the top of their classes in school, and our two youngest boys have been accepted into a special school for high-achieving students.

Some of alumni have already graduated, and several are currently enrolled in university. One of our girls was the youngest ever accepted into the Chemical Engineering program and will graduate in 2018. The other students in our Cusco apartment are currently enrolled in music, graphic design, business administration, and other programs.
