On December 10, 2004 our first two children arrived marking the birth of NPH International's eighth home, NPH Peru. Our family comprises children from less than one year to twenty years old. It is currently the smallest NPH home but it is rapidly growing and developing under the careful attention of our loving and dedicated staff of employees and volunteers.

Until May 2007, our home was located on rented property in Cajamarca, in the north of Peru, but we later bought 15 hectares of land in San Vicente de Cañete, two hours south of Peru’s capital, Lima, to build our permanent home. For four years, while awaiting construction and infrastructure of our new property, our home was temporarily located in the sunny village of Lunahuaná. In October 2011 we finally moved to our new and permanent home in San Vicente de Cañete. Our family is now closer to some of the greatest universities and cultural opportunities in all of South America.
Thanks to the support of our donors across the world, we are gradually realizing our dream of building a permanent home on our land in Cañete that will eventually include a clinic, administrative offices, therapy center, communal kitchen and dining room, and several family style houses designed to accommodate 16 children each. Construction will continue in the future to complete the complex.
