Saving the Lives of the Most Needy is not Difficult.

Today 60% of Peruvian families have basic unmet needs. They live without drinkable running water, electricity, adequate nourishment, education, basic hygienic conditions, and sufficient healthcare. More than 25% of Peruvians live in houses made of cardboard, adobe or bamboo-like reeds.

These numbers demand action, they demand that those who were born into plenty recognize their responsibility to aid those born into destitution.

Volunteers can help with building houses, clinics, libraries, schools, daycare centers and orphanages and by acquiring donations of building tools and materials.

One way for medical professionals to help is volunteering with the Coprodeli USA Medical Corp. Dentists, doctors and lab technicians are needed at Centro Medico San Francisco Solano in Pachucutec. The Centro Medico has basic equipment, but basic supplies, instruments and laboratory equipment are still needed.

Coprodeli volunteers distribute material donations collected in Spain and the United States. Thanks to the generosity of many, Coprodeli assists more than 5,000 people living in extreme poverty in marginalized urban zones in Callao and newly established shanty towns like Pachacutec. Many shipments of food, medicine, books, and clothing have arrived in Peru. But they are not enough. We need your help. To continue saving lives through our preventive health and humanitarian aid program, we need your help with:
  • Collecting or purchasing non-perishable food, books, educational material, medicine and medical equipment, building tools and materials, and cleaning supplies.
  • Shipping and packaging costs of sending humanitarian aid.
  • Donations for medical attention and hospital visits.
