Walking for the Peruvian Porters , 28 February 2021
Peru 25 for 25
Campaign by The LATA Foundation (RCN 1123580)
The LATA Foundation have launched the Peru 25 for 25 campaign to provide monthly essential food parcels for out of work Inca Trail Porters in Peru. We are asking people to do a sponsored 25 mile walk or run over the month of March to raise funds.

Story

In the month of March, I am walking/running 25 miles (the length of the Inca Trail) to raise money for Inca Trail Porters, who, due to Covid 19 have had no income and no government support since March 2020. I have a dodgy knee but I'm determined to do this for them and the LATA Foundation that I volunteer for on their events and fundraising team. 

I was fortunate enough to be able to walk the Inca trail with four friends back in 2009 and the incredible hospitality of the porters has never been forgotten. They carried our heavy bags and tents, cooked us amazing meals each night and played Peruvian games with us. They were so humble and inspiring that it saddens me that they have no food to eat. 

The suggested sponsorship is £25, which would buy an essential food parcel for a porter and their family, but any amount large or small will make a huge difference.
