Peru

Many communities on the outskirts of Lima, Peru face ongoing poverty, where families often struggle to afford food, healthcare, and other basic necessities. Local support systems such as Ollas Comunes—community kitchens organized by neighbors—help provide meals for families who might otherwise go hungry, while churches in these villages offer food, guidance, and support to those in need. Your support can help these programs continue providing essential meals and care to families who depend on them.

Back to School supplies

The Lending Hope Foundation bought many children school supplies returning to school in March 2026. These included backpacks, notebooks, writing utensils and even snacks.
