Project "Supérate"
We arrived in Bambamarca, Peru, in February 2023 with the desire to share life and walk alongside its people.
The reality we got to know led us to ask ourselves what concrete response we could offer to help bring about positive change. As a result of this time of encounter and reflection, the "Supérate" Project was born. We chose to focus especially on supporting students, accompanying women, and caring for people with special needs.
The "Supérate" Project aims to help each person grow beyond their own limitations by developing their unique gifts and abilities. We want every participant to discover that, through their daily lives, they can move forward step by step, facing with courage the obstacles and challenges that arise along the way. This is the inspiration behind the project's name: a constant invitation to grow, to trust, and to keep moving forward.
We do not walk this path alone. We are grateful for the invaluable collaboration of our volunteers and the dedicated commitment of the sisters, whose close presence makes this mission possible.

Educational Support
Through our contact with various educational institutions and their staff, we identified a low level of academic performance among many students. This revealed an opportunity for us to offer tutoring and academic support for both primary and secondary school students.
In this program, we seek to encourage and motivate children and teenagers to engage with their studies while reinforcing the subjects they are learning in school.
Women's Empowerment
Through our relationships with the people of Bambamarca, we recognized the need for a space dedicated to women—a place where they could discover new skills, develop their existing talents, and build meaningful relationships with one another.
With this in mind, we have created a variety of workshops, including cooking, literacy, fitness, and arts and crafts, providing opportunities for personal growth, learning, and community.
Support for People with Special Needs
Children and adults with special needs are among the most vulnerable members of the community and often experience social exclusion.
Through the "Supérate" Project, we seek to support them by fostering and developing their abilities while helping them become as independent as possible. We provide personalized support that takes into account each person's individual needs and circumstances, enabling them to grow in confidence and autonomy.
