In summer 2019, a group of students, a parent and Dr, Olivia
Salcido and Dr. Jaime Cardoso immersed in the land and culture of Peru. We
connected with local communities in the Sacred Valley and learned how they
preserve history, art and their heritage. We were able to contemplate the
breathtaking views of the Andes and we marveled at Machu Picchu from above and
walked through its buildings. We spent two days working in a local community on
projects that support sustainable women economic endeavors. We made around 200 adobe
bricks that will be used to construct a building where women will have a
workshop and their meetings.
