The mission of the Sacred Valley Project is to provide boarding and supplementary education for young women from low-income families in remote areas of the Andes so that they can continue and complete their secondary education.  As a supporter of girls’ education in Peru, you can make a one time, tax deductible donation or you can sign up to become a monthly donor! 

The Sacred Valley Project addresses the need for better access to secondary school for Quechua girls from rural Andean communities by removing the barrier of a long and unsafe journey, providing a dormitory and education center where the girls can live in a safe and nurturing environment all while receiving nutritious meals, after school tutoring, mentorship and post-secondary guidance. From inception, the dormitory was intended to be more than just a living space. It is a place of community and growth, in which the girls learn to set goals and achieve them in a warm and positive environment. We provide a space that nurtures and supports indigenous girls in their endeavor to adapt to the culture of an urban area, Spanish speaking schools, and academic struggles as result of poor primary education. Each year, SVP beneficiaries receive over 2000 hours of professional tutoring and academic support from local, Quechua speaking tutors. As a result of this support, 100% of SVP students are currently graduating from the program.
