HOOP Peru is a non-profit organisation enhancing the education of disadvantaged children and their families in Flora Tristan and the surrounding communities.

Helping Overcome Obstacles Peru (HOOP) was founded in Flora Tristán in 2012. After witnessing first-hand the poverty, social problems, and lack of opportunities in the community, the HOOP co-founders decided they would do whatever they could to help. Knowing the transformative power of education, they set up HOOP as a registered charity with the aim of lifting families out of poverty through projects delivered at our school in Flora Tristán.

HOOP has continued to grow ever since, and is now an important part of life for many families in the community. The relationship and trust we have is exceptional and allows us to create a lasting impact on the lives of the families we work with.

We believe education is for everyone, so we provide strategic educational programs to give people of all ages the opportunity to advance their education, health, self-confidence and better their quality of life.

I couldn’t have chosen a better organization to volunteer with! Each day I came home with a smile on my face knowing that HOOP has made a difference. I had always wanted to volunteer overseas and I wanted to gain teaching experience, so I decided to join HOOP for part of my university year ...

I would definitely recommend volunteering with HOOP. It is an experience of a lifetime. I was born in Arequipa, and have lived here ever since. I couldn’t let go of the opportunity to join this organisation that has been working with poor areas in Arequipa. All the people that HOOP has ...

The best decision I ever made was going to Peru to work as a Communications and Development Coordinator for HOOP. Within my first weeks I was already in charge of a huge fundraising campaign; securing one third of the NGO’s budget for the year, managing and writing blogs, applying to grants, ...
