On Saturday at 6:30 the second edition of the Poetry Recital took place. It was run by the INQUIETUDES for the benefit of PAYPE (Programs of support for Peru).
With a great turnout, the public almost reached the capacity of the Saint Vincent Parochial Center Theater on Sarriá.
There were words of gratitude and a presentation of PAYPE’s projects. Many people make this event possible; they make it possible that the communities we work with can get many of the necessities for day-to-day life. PAYPE is sustained by volunteers and is thankful for their work and the generated collection, all of which goes directly towards our projects. The group INQUIETUDES (Worries) is part of that group of volunteers that help us by doing what they know best and helping secure the money necessary to continue with these projects. To all of them: thank you very much.

The jewelry shop LIALLI Duaby has wanted to help as well and besides giving people a card to exchange for a pretty pearl bracelet, they have donated to us a necklace to draw for. The drawing was very exciting thanks to the beautiful necklace.
As we also have projects for women, MUJERES EN IGUALIDAD (Women in Equality) have wanted to collaborate with the event.
We spoke of our experience when we traveled to Peru from June to July where we could visit the distinct projects already under way and others just beginning. We visited the finished projects checking their transformation and the good use that is being made of what it achieved.
Chepén is a hostel where they give shelter to single mothers and abandoned children. Recently the sewing machines that helped to support the hostel as a way to make money for some of those women were stolen.
