Our Signature Project: The Lakeside Girls Refuge

Working in conjunction with a local Peruvian charitable association, La Buena Semilla, (The Good Seed) iProjects is in the process of constructing a home for abused and pregnant teens on a 52 acre parcel of land just outside of Puerto Maldonado, Peru. Construction began in March 2009. On completion the home will house approximately 25 girls and their babies. The home will also feature its own daycare facility and training rooms which will give the girls the opportunity to learn not only life skills but also career skills which they will be able to use for the rest of their lives. It is the goal of the home that when the girls are ready to leave they will have been empowered to live productive and independent lives.  The home will offer programs that will allow the girls hope and healing as well as an opportunity to grow emotionally and spiritually. Because the home is surrounded by so much land, a farm is also being developed as part of the project. Rice, yuca and corn are already being grown, and there is an abundance of fruit trees on the property It is hoped that over time the farm will allow the refuge to become self sustaining, however in the mean time girls in the home will be supported through a child sponsorship program administered by the charity. If you would like details about how to sponsor a child information can be obtained by calling 519 841 3892.
