What
•Eagle Condor Humanitarian (ECH) seeks to create sustainable hope within people of less developed areas, through purposeful humanitarian field programs
•Programs include micro credit, farming improvement, women’s empowerment, constructing greenhouses, building libraries, and providing school supplies
•ECH provides employment opportunities and teaches principles of good business, which enables people to be self-sustaining and raises their standard of living
Why
•The Andes house some of the poorest people in the world, many of whom have no running water, sewage, or electricity

•Construction of greenhouses increase the growing season from 6 weeks to 5 months, increasing crop yields for the poorest of the poor
Where
•ECH works in Northern Peru in the cities of Chiclayo (unemployment rate of 60%), Piura, Cuzco, and Trujillo
•ECH plans to extend into other areas as donor base grows
•Salkantay is a current attempt at a “model village”, which leaders from other villages can come to learn from; greenhouses, duck and fish-raising are among the key programs implemented
