Visit Chimbote

Against inconceivable odds, thanks to your support, the people of Chimbote are changing their lives for the better. One of the best ways to understand how this is happening is through a visit.

In the last ten years, hundreds of donors and volunteers have visited Chimbote. Visitors have aided Peru by the money they’ve spent during their trips and become invaluable sources of information about Chimbote once they’ve returned to their own parishes and communities.

Visitors often return to the U.S. saying the same things: That they’ll never forget the people of Peru. That they were touched to the core by the poverty, faith, hope and charity they witnessed. That the visit changed their lives.
