Napa, CA
Since 1994, Coprodeli’s Nuestra Señora del Mar Girls’ Home in Callao has worked to ensure that many of the city’s most vulnerable girls are given a safe, loving home. In the city’s poorest neighborhoods such as Guardia Chalaca, families struggle to make ends meet and are often unable to provide for their sons and daughters’ most basic needs. These dire conditions lead to many children being orphaned, abandoned, or seriously abused; as a result, these girls and boys are left vulnerable to destructive paths that include begging, juvenile delinquency, gang membership, and drug abuse. Coprodeli’s Nuestra Señora del Mar Girls’ Home has served and cared for nearly 200 young women over the course of 15 years. Every girl who has lived at the Nuestra Señora del Mar Girls’ Home has received proper nutritional, health, and psychological care and participated in specially-designed social and academic programs. Currently, 30 girls reside at the Nuestra Señora del Mar Girls’ Home. This project will ensure the Home’s kitchen is provided with new equipment including a water pump for the sink, blender, five round tables, 12 wooden chairs, and three plastic trash containers. These items will replace the broken equipment that has been used in the kitchen since the Home's opening. The new materials will enable the Nuestra Señora del Mar Girls’ Home to continue to provide 30 resident girls with two nutritious every day. Become the Citizen Philanthropist for this project and ensure current and future residents of the Home receive the meals and nutritional programs they need to grow and pursue brighter futures.
