The face of poverty in Peru has changed, but its pain remains the same.

The contrast is shocking: tons of edible food are discarded every day while children, mothers, and elderly in underserved communities survive on just one meal a day — or none at all.

At Agape Hand, we know that the true driving force behind our impact is the people who make up this mission.

At Agape Hand, we work every day to fight hunger and food waste.

In the most vulnerable corners of Peru, where access to a decent meal is a daily challenge, there is a silent army of heroines: mothers. They are the ones who, with unwavering determination and love, do the impossible to put a nutritious meal on their children's table.

In a world where tons of food are wasted every day, millions of people continue to suffer from hunger.

These indigenous and rural communities, isolated from basic services and government support, struggle daily to secure a meal for their children.

In a world of abundance, millions of people go to bed hungry. Not because they choose to, but because life has not given them another option.
