The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded a $1.5M Cooperative Agreement to Care Peru under the USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas (CFDA 98.001) federal grant program. The funding supports the "The Guardians of Change" project, which aims to reduce the vulnerability of girls, adolescents, and women to natural hazards exacerbated by climate change in Peru. As a foreign-owned, non-profit organization, Care Peru will implement a range of activities to address this objective through the 23-month project period ending in January 2026.
Additionally, Care Peru has served as a subrecipient on prior USAID grants, collaborating with prime grantees like CARE and World Vision to provide humanitarian assistance, including food security support, protection services, mental health aid, and livelihoods interventions for Venezuelan refugees and migrants in Peru. These subgrant activities have spanned regions such as Tumbes, Piura, Lima, and Callao.
