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

In many homes, the table is set—but it isn’t complete. There is food, but no real nutrition. Mouths are fed, but bodies are not strengthened.

On this Labor Day, at AGAPE HAND, we honor not only those with formal employment but also those who work simply to survive.

Deep in the Peruvian Andes, where time seems frozen and progress has not arrived, lives Dominga. Her spirit is strong, but her body is weary.

Every day, tons of perfectly good food end up in the trash. Meanwhile, in the most remote areas of Peru, there are invisible stories of hunger, abandonment, and loneliness.

Deep in the mountains of Peru and in native communities of the jungle, there is a silent and painful reality.

In the most remote areas of Peru, anemia severely affects the most vulnerable communities.

Like in a Studio Ghibli world, at AGAPE HAND we believe in the magic of solidarity, in the connection between humanity and nature, and in the transformative power of hope.

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 Peru, 4 out of 10 children live in extreme poverty, facing hunger, malnutrition, and lack of access to education and healthcare.
