One home is rewriting how these stories end.
Restoring Children International is a family-run home for rescued, at-risk girls in Arequipa, Peru. Girls are raised here under one roof, as daughters. For $35 a month, you carry one of them — home, school, meals, medical care. All of it.
Before the rescue, there is the street.
The marginal communities that ring Arequipa — where family violence keeps rising.
/ Abuse, abandonment, mistreatment, malnourishment — the words that describe the girls we receive
/ Peruvian courts and child protection overloaded, with an urgent need for safe beds
/ Girls passed from home to home — or left to fend for themselves
Less than five cents of every US charitable dollar ever crosses a border to reach children like these.
They arrived afraid. Watch what happens next.
Candy, 18
Arrived at the shelter at eight years old. She earned Peru’s prestigious Beca 18 national scholarship and is now studying psychology at university.
“I want to help others as I was helped.”
Claudia, 18
Lost her mother at four. With Papa Rick she found family and direction — and is about to complete her psychology degree.
“I want to work in a children’s home, helping kids like me.”
Maribel, 18
Came to the home full of fear at seven. Today she’s in nursing school and wants to spend her life caring for others.
“God changed my life. Now I want to be His hands.”
Rescue. Restore. Raise. Release.
Rescue
Placed with us through Peru’s courts and child protection system, she gets what matters first: a safe bed, hot meals, and a door that locks out the past.
Restore
A staff psychologist and social worker, substitute mothers, and the patient love of God help her heal from what no child should carry.
Raise
School with tutoring, medical and dental care, chores, birthdays, faith, and sisters. Not an orphanage schedule — a childhood.
Release
University or vocational training with our support until she stands on her own. Two of our daughters are in university right now.
Study hall and vocational training — the middle of the story.
Frugal on purpose. Your $35 is her whole month.
— No US office — no lease payments consuming donor funds
— No high-paid staff — a family calling, not a career
— 95% of funds go directly to the girls’ care
— Government-mandated psychologist, social worker & house mothers — real professional care
