What we do in Peru

Since 2014, Advance and our partners have been bringing health and hope to Peru through life-changing surgical brigades, health education, and community development.

In partnership with indigenous organization, CADEP, we are working to transform the health and quality of life for hundreds of families in the Peruvian highlands. We work with local government authorities, community leaders, teachers, and families toward building capacity and strengthening communities, all while preserving cultural and indigenous traditions. This includes providing clean water, safe and sustainable homes, health education, sustainability training, and vital surgical and medical care..
