Expand Perú promotes volunteerism as a mechanism to support the work being done by various social assistance, medical, and education centers in Peru. Expand Peru is the intermediary between the community and the volunteer, so that the volunteer can work in a capacity that is best suited to their skills and interests. There is no legal obligation between Expand Peru, the volunteer, or the placement sites.
Expand Perú is not a political, religious, or commercial organization. We do not participate in any ideological movements. We are an organization that brings together people from various backgrounds to live and work together, regardless of nationality, race, or religion.
Expand Perú is funded by volunteers and their own economic activities. We do not depend on international, national, or public funding.
