CIMA - Social Project in Lima, Peru

CIMA – Centro de Integración de Menores con Amor - Social Project in Lima

Cima is a non-profit organization that provides assistance to boys who live on the streets or find themselves in high-risk situations. CIMA welcomes boys that suffer, have lost hope and have been rejected by their own families. Boys from nine to sixteen years of age are accommodated with the goal of reinstating them in their homes and in society. CIMA tries their best to provide the boys with a home where they can satisfy their basic needs of affection, housing, food, health and education. Projecting values such as teamwork, discipline, commitment and respect is an integral part of life at the CIMA home.
