view full screen slideshow
by: MILAGROS POLO
The Mantay Shelter in Cusco, Peru, experienced flooding this past year which damaged the bathrooms in the facility. Adventure Life provided funding for repairs to be completed in a timely manner. The Mantay Shelter supports adolescent mothers in reaching a life of dignity for themselves and their children and we at Adventure Life are proud to support them.
