Presentation
of the Organization
INTIWAWA is a young
non-governmental organization that is located in Arequipa/Peru as well as Emsdetten/Germany.
The Name IntiWawa is Quechua and means “Children of the Sun”
The
primary goal of our organization is to help young men and woman and –together
with them- improve their everyday situation. At this point we mainly work in San Isidro, a small
village of about 90 families, located approximately 45 minutes from the
City-Centre.
The inhabitants
of this village suffer from malnutrition, lack of education, alcoholism and
domestic violence. Missing sanitary arrangements and unclean water lead to
diseases caused by the lack of hygiene. Furthermore there is a constant
shortage of financial capacity to afford basic human requirements such as
medicine or a proper water supply system.
The aim
of IntiWawa is to fight existing problems as well as research and fight the
cause of these problems in order to prevent their development in the first
place.
To
achieve these goals, we need as much support as we can get from motivated and
energetic voluntary workers as well as financial support to carry out our
projects.
