In Quechua, chapi means "here" and in Spanish casa means "home." All too often small children in Peru have no home. Quechua Benefit aims to change this reality.
For twelve years Quechua Benefit has observed and identified the need: hunger, lack of shelter and available education, affordable medical and dental services, clothing—a never-ending flood of need. The charity has been looking for a successful model, a way to create hope, a permanent solution. The search led us to Jean Bouquet and his wife, Swiss educator Silvia Fischer, who operate a children's home called Allin Kawasi.
