ACT Peru (soup)

This on-going project provides low cost meals to the community through a soup kitchen. A team of local volunteers provide their time and a building.

ACT Peru is a non-profit organization providing humanitarian aid to the people of Pucallpa, Peru and the surrounding region. This growing city is located on the banks of the Ucayali river. Pucallpa is the gateway to the Amazon jungle, with over 300,000 people in the city and many, many more poor in bedroom communities nearby. Poverty, disease, parasites, and malnutrition plague the people, and few have access to running water or sanitary facilities. ACT Peru is working with outlying communities to provide sanitary solutions and nutritional support for families and individuals.
