SKIP girlCreated in 2003, SKIP is a non-profit organization helping economically-disadvantaged children in El Porvenir realize their right to an education. We are currently working on the north coast of Peru, in the impoverished districts that surround the city of Trujillo.

 

Our team is comprised of volunteers from the community of El Porvenir and Trujillo as well as volunteers from overseas.
