Quechua Benefit
Quechua Benefit is an organization dedicated to helping the Quechua people in the highlands of Peru.
We’re celebrating three years of your love and generosity! The reconstructed “Madre Antonia Comedor” in Ichumpampa is serving more than 100,000 meals a year thanks to your kindness.
Sister Antonia’s soup kitchen served millions of hot meals from 1971 to 2010. Today plans are being made to transform that space into a Community Center in Yanque.
Sister Antonia Kayser is a plucky 81 year-old Catholic nun with a secret. Born and raised in the borough of Brooklyn, New York she is a member of the Maryknoll Order. Sister Antonia has been feeding 800 dirt-poor people a day since 1973 from the courtyard of the church in Yanque, a small town in the Colca Valley of Peru.
