“Ayudando Abrigando has always been a special experience for me. Participating in the deliveries and understanding the process that is followed to generate a change is very rewarding. It is impressive to see how important it is for our environment and for those who need our help the most. I am passionate about fashion, dance and learning new things, as well as helping others and making people smile. I am sure that Helping to Keep Warm will continue to grow and reach the hearts of more people.”
“The first time I heard about Ayudando Abrigando was when I heard my brother talk about it. His joy in doing so was contagious. So the first thing I did when I entered high school was to attend one of the donations and become a volunteer. From that moment on, I couldn’t be more proud of having woken up early that Saturday to help shelter. The connections I make with the children, whose lives are so different, somehow intertwine with ours. The passion of the volunteers, who, when coordinated, have the power to change lives and communities, is truly inspiring. The donations always bring smiles and become a symbol of those visits. Ayudando Abrigando has transformed my perception of service; there is nothing better than helping.”
“This year, being part of Ayudando Abrigando has been a unique experience. The incredible moments of seeing the smiles on people’s faces during the donations are what make me the happiest. I am passionate about law and literature. My goal is that, in the future, we can grow this community and continue spreading happiness to those who need it the most.”
“Since I can remember, I have participated in the donations of Ayudando Abrigando. That’s where my love for helping others was born. I have a great passion for woodworking and restoring classic cars. What I enjoy most about being part of Ayudando Abrigando is playing with the kids and seeing their smiles when we are together.”
“I have always wanted to be part of Ayudando Abrigando, an NGO that is passionately dedicated to fulfilling its mission and bringing joy and hope to those who need it most. My passions, such as literature and politics, find a space where I can apply my creative skills and develop as a person. My greatest wish is to continue bringing smiles and contribute to the growth of our community, inviting more people to join in the happiness of others.”
Ayudando Abrigando not only brings smiles to the children, but also to me. I have seen myself grow during the time I have been with the NGO. At 15 years old, my passions are playing soccer and math. In the future, I would like to continue growing as a person and discover new passions.
‘’Being part of Ayudando Abrigando has deepened my passion for helping people in Peru. From the delivery process to witnessing the impact on families, I see how essential our work is. I love fashion and taekwondo, and I am concerned about environmental issues. This initiative promotes sustainable change in communities, inspiring others to join for a positive impact.’’
“Being the founder of Ayudando Abrigando remains one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I started this project at 13 years old, without imagining that, 9 years later, it would still be a dream come true. I am filled with pride to see how the mission has grown beyond me and my three best friends, becoming a larger community that continues to support those in need. One of the happiest moments is when we hand out the blankets and see the children and families smile; in those moments, we understand the true impact of our work and feel that every effort is worth it.”
“We started Ayudando Abrigando when we were 14 years old, and I am proud and inspired by the impact we have made. We are an organization aiming to transform the country, one person at a time. Above all, for me, Ayudando Abrigando represents the impact that each of us can achieve. Together, for a better Peru!”
“At Ayudando Abrigando, we have created an organization dedicated to humanizing and transforming realities, providing support to those who need it the most. I am happy to see how this organization continues to grow and proud to be part of this amazing project. Let’s keep pushing for more!”
“As we approach a decade since the founding of Ayudando Abrigando, I realize that the mission of this wonderful organization goes beyond providing warmth to the most vulnerable Peruvians. It also focuses on raising awareness about the diverse realities of our country, promoting social and economic development. Providing warmth is not simply an act of charity. Our work goes further, seeking to bring personal and human value to those who have the least.
This organization has shown me the immense potential of Peru. Progress is possible, development is achievable, and we, the people of this wonderful country, are not the problem. Ayudando Abrigando loves Peru, cares for the environment, and provides resources to those in need. I am convinced that as this organization grows, so will Peru, and we will be able to educate our population to foster productive and effective development”
