What we do
Four programs. Two continents. One principle: reciprocity. Each initiative is designed to meet real needs with dignity, consistency, and care.
Meeting basic needs with dignity.
Ayni Essentials provides clothing, shoes, food, personal care items, and household goods to individuals and families who need them most.
Through community distributions and local partnerships, we work to ensure that essential items reach the people who need them — in the United States and in Peru.
Clothing, shoes, personal care items, food, and household goods distributed to families and individuals.
Equipping children to learn and grow.
Ayni Education supports children in underserved communities with the school supplies they need to participate fully in their education.
From notebooks and pencils to backpacks and books, we work to remove barriers so that every child can show up ready to learn.
School supplies, backpacks, and books provided to children each year.
Connecting people, resources, and communities.
Ayni Community brings people together through shared purpose. We support grassroots efforts, local collaborators, and community-led initiatives that strengthen the places we serve.
By building relationships across borders, we help create networks of support that extend far beyond any single distribution.
Ongoing community partnerships and collaborative outreach efforts.
Spreading joy when it matters most.
Christmas Ayni brings seasonal joy to children and families through gifts, toys, and holiday celebrations in communities where resources are limited.
Every year, volunteers and donors come together to make sure that children experience the warmth and wonder of the holiday season.
150+ Christmas toys provided to children each year.
