2000 Coats for kids in the Peruvian mountains

Donation protected
Our mission: To provide 2000 coats and more, to ensure that no child in the remote Peruvian mountains goes cold during the harsh winter months. For many of these children, a warm coat is not just a piece of clothing; it's a lifeline, a chance for them to stay healthy, attend school, and dream of a brighter future. I personally travel to Peru every year do distribute the coats and I also encourage you to come with me and be part of this fun journey.

Why Coats Matter: The harsh winters in the Peruvian mountains can be unforgiving, and for many of these children, the simple luxury of a brand-new coat is a rare and treasured experience. Most of them have never received anything brand new in their lives. The gift of a new coat not only provides warmth but also instills a sense of pride and dignity in these young hearts. It tells them that the world cares about their well-being and believes in their potential.

We help boost the local economy by buying the coats from small local vendors and street vendors, and also make sure the coats are made locally in Peru. Your contribution goes beyond the fabric and stitches; it's a symbol of hope and a brighter tomorrow.

Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of many, we successfully provided more than 1000 warm coats to children living in the remote mountains of Peru. The smiles on their faces warmed our hearts just as much as those cozy coats warmed their bodies. Now, it's time to come together once again and make an even bigger impact this year.

How You Can Help:
Donate: Every dollar you contribute goes directly toward purchasing coats for these kids. Even a small donation can make a big difference.
Share: Spread the word about our campaign on social media, among friends, and within your community. The more people who know about our cause, the more children we can help.

Our Promise: We are committed to transparency and accountability. We will provide regular updates on our progress, and you’ll see the direct impact of your donation through photos and stories from the children you’ve helped.

Join Us: Let’s come together once again to make a real and lasting change in the lives of these incredible children. Your support, no matter how big or small, is a beacon of hope for them. Together, we can ensure that every child in the remote Peruvian mountains has the warmth they deserve, not just in their coats but in their hearts.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
