Peru Volunteer Vacation Testimonials

"We just wanted to let you know our Peru program was everything we expected and more. Our team leader was absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of us, going above and beyond in her job to make sure we were all having a great experience. We have rarely met someone who worked so hard and was so dedicated to the job. Thanks for providing us with the opportunity to serve in Peru. We will definitely consider another program with Global Volunteers in the future."
~ Glen and Kathy Sorte, UT

"Once you walk into PPA, the little ones simply exude love from every cell in their bodies. The children are remarkable. Today I bought the most expensive flowers ever...though they cost me only a few US dollars, the little girl stole my heart in the process."
~ David Vernier, OH

"I learned a lot. I learned that happiness exists in poverty and that people who have little still have their pride. Most importantly, I learned that children are healing to cynical souls."
~ Chelsey Tollefson, MN

"Language was not a barrier. As soon as I reached out my hands, they came with outstretched hands into my arms. I was no longer a stranger. It was very heartwarming, and the people I met are friendly and caring, all working hard to make a living. In Peru, there is still the richest of the rich and the poorest of the poor, as in any other country. However, there is hope in all humanity."
~ Thelma Chun, HI

"Miracles do happen each day and Global Volunteers has an appreciable percentage of them! I feel I have attained a more complex view of South America. I learned that Peruvian people work very hard and that human needs are a constant."
