Privately funded and founder-led, the foundation supports direct projects that strengthen care, safety, health, and daily stability for children in Peru.
Improving conditions
for children
IN PERU
Since 2011
Practical work shaped by real conditions in hospitals, shelter settings, and community spaces.
HOW WE WORK
Clear purpose. Direct delivery.
Private commitment placed where support can serve real use
The foundation directs private resources toward work that improves the settings where children receive care, find safety, access food, and experience greater daily stability. Projects are chosen where need, scope, and likely use can be understood clearly, so support remains grounded, responsible, and useful over time.

OUR FOCUS
Three ways the work moves
Each area serves a different role
The work is organized in three distinct ways so each project stays clear in purpose and scope. One addresses immediate needs. One supports equipment and infrastructure meant to remain in service. One helps keep decisions connected to local realities, so the work reflects actual conditions rather than distance or assumption.
THE STRUCTURE
Clear role before resources move
The first question is not what sounds good, but what practical role a project will serve. That discipline helps keep priorities clear, reduces drift, and supports work that can be carried through with care and consistency.
Philanthropy
Direct support for immediate needs affecting children’s daily wellbeing.
Investment
Private capital placed into equipment, infrastructure, and physical settings meant to remain useful over time.
Advocacy
Continued attention, local dialogue, and informed judgment that keep the work connected to real conditions.
AREAS OF WORK
Where support is placed
Four settings help keep the work specific
The work is carried out across four main settings. Each reflects a different environment, a different kind of need, and a different form of response, helping every project stay clear in purpose and easy to understand in context.
Hospital and Medical Support
Projects that strengthen treatment environments and the daily conditions surrounding pediatric care.
Child Shelter and Direct Care
Projects that support safer daily environments through shelter, food, medicine, and continuity of care.
Community Food and Kitchen Support
Projects that help build shared kitchen capacity for food preparation and service in places facing material pressure.
Local Response and Emerging Needs
Work developed for serious needs that require direct review, contextual understanding, and a careful response.
PROJECT PATHWAY
From observed need to delivered work
Local input, careful review, consistent direction
Each project begins with conditions that can be seen and understood in place. Input may come from community representatives, hospital leadership, public officials, and others with direct knowledge of the setting. Projects are then reviewed for urgency, feasibility, practical value, and likely use. Delivery may involve trusted local counterparts, while scope, approvals, and direction remain consistent throughout.
OUR STORY
Why Peru, and why this work
A private commitment carried forward with care and responsibility
Founded by Harry Perez in 2011, the work began from a personal commitment to children in Peru and a belief that support should be respectful, useful, and closely tied to real conditions. That origin still shapes the foundation today. The model remains founder-led, privately funded, and selective in what it takes on, with attention to place, continuity, and practical value.
