We will soon be accepting volunteers again in our Cajamarca projects. We have
conducted our programme in Cajamarca over three terms since early 2004. The first
term, after nearly a year, we turned the centre over to a group of ex volunteers.
The next year we worked with Hijas de Caridad and the Belen Orphanage, and opened
a new centre that autumn. In early 2006 we opened an even larger centre near the
Plaza de Armas, recruited, prepared and matriculated a group of children into
Cajamarca schools; and continued to work with Belen and Hijas..For
our next Cajamarca programme:..info@volunteercajamarca.com.: |
| In 2006 - We reopened our
programme to educate the poorest children in Cajamarca. Our headquarters were

on a daily basis.The object of the campaign is to recruit volunteers from the
tourist population who visit Peru each year, | |
