F.L.Y. - Peru Work Projects

F.L.Y. was warmly welcomed as we arrived at Hogar de Esperanza! The children did a wonderful program for us and captured our hearts instantly. I was amazed because the children and the workers remembered me so well! It was a special moment for me!


We had a tour of the facility and began our work the next day. Every morning, we split into groups and did a variety of projects for the orphanage. We helped create sidewalks throughout the campus...


...fixed up the children's playground area...



...sanded and painted frames for new window screens...


...weeded the alfalfa field...


...dug a ton of sand around the facility...

...worked in the on-campus school and kindergarten...


...and painted the children's dining room area.
