Phenomenal Program

I visited Cusco on my own, without a program. I did not take Spanish lessons with Jossie as I already had a grasp on the language, but I instead decided to volunteer at the Nativos after school program tutoring the children and teaching them English. It was in this environment that I saw the value in the work of the women of Nativos: to provide a safe environment for underprivileged children to learn and to grow. Jossie and Maritsa have put their hearts into their mission and have made a difference to these children. They are caring, helpful, and most importantly, they became like family to me while I was there. I fully believe in what these women do and know that Nativos will be my first stop whenever I return to Cusco.
