I will let their words, below, speak for themselves. More information about the school can be found at <a href="http://www.kusikawsay.org" target="blank">www.kusikawsay.org</a>. As they say below, money is needed to buy food and clothing for their children. Donations can be sent via Pachamama's Path, a community-run organization: <a href="http://www.pachamamaspath.org/support.php" target="blank">www.pachamamaspath.org/support.php</a>. The money will go to a US bank account and then be wired directly to the community in Peru. Thank you in advance for your help in this devastating time.</p>]]></description>
