| The Mirasol Project is a project to improve the future of disadvantaged children in Peru and was set up in 2006. It is named after a little girl called Mirasol who helps tend a herd of 3,000 alpaca at the Mallkini ranch high in the sierras of the Peruvian Andes. She is one of the Quechua-speaking people of the Andes who are particularly disadvantaged. Few of these people can read or write, their health is poor and there has been no escape from the relentless poverty they experience until now. |
