An educated girl understands the importance of her own education and will make sure that her children are educated as well, which in turn, will break the cycle of poverty and create greater opportunities for future generations. Peruvian Hearts works to empower women through education and mentorship, so they can become leaders within their communities. Photo by Thomas Duncan for Photographers Without Borders.
One of their programs, Peruvian Promise, empowers Peruvian women to break the cycle of poverty through secondary-school graduation and continued education at the post-secondary level in vocational institutes, colleges, and universities.

Ana Dodson founded Peruvian Hearts when she was only 11-years-old, as she was concerned by the extreme poverty and found her life’s mission to improve conditions in her home land for other children, especially young girls. Photo by Thomas Duncan for Photographers Without Borders.
