The Colour of Hope is a British charity working with disadvantaged young people leaving care homes in Lima, Peru’s capital city. Most of these young people have previously been street children and still bear the marks of drug addiction, extreme poverty and abuse. Once they grow up, they are forced to leave their homes, find a job and start supporting themselves, but the difficulties of their past, lack of family support and insufficient funds make this almost impossible. Many of them end up exactly where they started – on the streets. The Colour of Hope gives support to these disadvantaged and marginalized young people as they leave their homes. We help them to integrate into their community and to find dignified work; we give them a chance for change. Please contact us if you’d like to find out more about The Colour of Hope and our charity work in Peru or if you're interested in sponsoring a young person, fundraising events, making a donation or volunteering in Peru. Please help these young adults to become the independent and successful people they deserve to be. Please give them a chance for change.
