About Us
Helping women never doubt that they are Valuable & Powerful
The Sustainable Development Project (SD Project-Peru) is a social work and volunteer program operating in the Central Andes, managed and promoted by volunteers. It was legally established and registered in the Peruvian Public Registry in 2009.
We have developed social programs, without intermediaries, in the most vulnerable communities of the Peruvian Andes, where the largest population living in extreme poverty and experiencing economic, social, and cultural exclusion is concentrated.

Testimonials
"Volunteering with the S D Project is an intense cross cultural learning experience. The needs are varied and large among the families in the program, yet smiles and genuine personal relations are the norm. Frank and the other “tichers” are highly respected and warmly received."

"I took part of the project in March and had an amazing time with the children of Huancayo. I got to make an impact by teaching english with the little knowledge in spanish I had from before and I did as well have plenty of time to improve my spanish in a way I’d never done before."
