I went to Peru for a couple of weeks in October and did earthquake relief in the Pisco area... What are you looking to do there, for how long, and where are you from? Dave

i was recently told it was not safe for foreigners to volunteers near the site of the quake...i just came from volunteering in a children's center in cusco which was incredible...Asociacion Señor de Huanca <senordehuanca@gmail.com>. this is the director's email. he and his wife actually welcomed 14 of us into their home!

try volunteerabroad.com I recommend AYNI, they don't charge volunteers like other places do.

Hello, I know a center in the US named Cross Cultural Solutions, and they arrange many young volunteer programs. I have worked with them and many of the teenagers were sent to Peru. The experience was incredible for them, because the reality they see everyday is so much different from theirs. They have local accomodation and transportation. By the time I worked with them, they sent the volunteers to Cajamarca (North of Peru), Ayacucho and Puno (Central-South). Mostly the visited places are very poor. If you volunteer to Peru, you will have a very memorable experience!

For two summers I have gone to Peru to do volunteer work in small villages along the Amazon. If you're considering doing something like that, I commend you. It was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! Working in such poverty is really humbling and you will grow to love the people you work with. I know there are probably many organizations you could get in touch with if you are interested in international humanitarian aid, but I recommend you contact Rotary International. Good luck!

I doubt that it will work, I brought my AT&T cell phone down here and it didn't work. Overall I would recommend that you not bring it if it isn't necessary and if you do avoid showing it to much in public since there is a slight risk of it getting robbed depending on which part of Peru you will be going to.
