Inti Runakunaq Wasin is a non-profit private institution whose mission is to contribute to the integral development mainly of children, but also of adolescents, women and persons with special needs, that are found in high-risk situations, abandoned or victims of family violence.  We aim to support the integration of families, to improve the quality of life and to promote positive participation in the development of the country.

The emotional and spiritual development of children, women and the family, and promoting the growth of personal skills and abilities are specitic objectives of the institution.  We aim to achieve these objectives through the introduction of different programs: formative, educational, and occupational.


THE POPULATION WE WORK WITH
The population with which we work is primarily comprised of children and adolescents that come from families living in extreme poverty.  Most of the families have migrated from small villages in the countryside surrounding Cusco.  The children find in the streets of Cusco their primary space for personal development.  The population of children we work with participate in various activities.  They are the kids of the streets, the beggers and the workers.

 The following testimonies are true stories.  Only the names and some of the places have been changed to respect the identities of the children.  We offer these  testimonies to personally aquaint you with the individuals affected by the social issue we are addressing.  These children are typical of those we work with.
