Independent tour operator Perú InsideOut has launched a new partnership with Arequipa-based educational charity Put Them First. The initiative is aimed at helping meet the needs of local children, and to raise funds to assist in improving their education and nutrition. To achieve this, Perú InsideOut will work closely with Put Them First to regularly donate books, clothes, school supplies and human resources. In addition, the tour operator will raise awareness of the needs of this community among its clients.
Roberto D'Amico, Owner of Perú InsideOut, said: “We believe passionately that as travellers we have a responsibility to support the local communities and people that kindly welcome us into their lives and homes, and who share their culture with us. For this reason, we are committed to continue our support for children's educational charity Put Them First. Thank you to all Perú InsideOut clients who have supported this worthy cause!”
Commenting on the partnership, Emma Doherty, Co-Founder and Director, said: “We are extremely grateful to Perú InsideOut for partnering with us and for supporting our projects and the children of Put Them First. Thank you again to the founder, staff, and clients of Perú InsideOut for helping the children of Put Them First!”
