Helping Overcome Obstacles Peru
Annual Report 2021
The Covid 19 pandemic continued to have an impact on UK economic activity in 2021, with a third national lockdown imposed from January - March 2021. This was followed by a phased lifting of restrictions from March - July 2021.
Naturally, fundraising activities were severely restricted because of these measures, although individual supporters of the charity continued to raise funds through Hoop Helper, smile.amazon.co.uk and easyfundraising.org. Unfortunately, Virgin Giving, which had been a new source of donations, closed in November 2021.
The chair, Adam Weston forged a new partnership with Charitable Travel, whereby 5% of the price of a holiday booked through the company is donated to the customer’s nominated UK charity. However, as worldwide tourism had more or less ceased by this point, this did not bring the hoped for increase in donations. Adam also continued long distance support of individual students via Zoom.
Meanwhile, during the winter, the management team of HOOP Peru focussed on restructuring their programs, so that English, social work and psychology were superseded by Education, Family, and Community programs. In the spring of 2021, the new programs were launched, as families began to return to the area and economic activity rebounded strongly.
Education focused on a distance learning project and making the children’s school holidays as useful and productive as possible with art and culture workshops.
In Family , the focus was on COVID-19 information sessions funded by HOOP Germany and psychological family support through voice and video calls.
Work within the Community program continued to support the ongoing Composting Project and the Ruwana women’s social enterprise venture weaving and embroidering hand made garments and accessories to sell.
The charity has committed to ensuring that all projects and work align with the UN’s SDGs.
Taking advantage of the easing of restrictions, the long awaited HOOP school and community building project commenced, financed by donations and the support of HOOP Taiwan. HOOP (UK) was able to witness the progress of the project thanks to regular updates on Zoom.
HOOP Peru continued their mission to ally with organisations both locally and abroad. During the year they signed collaborations with La Lombriz Feliz, Change and Por Un Perú Mejor (PUPM). New partnerships were formed overseas with HOOP France and HOOP USA collaborating alongside HOOP Austria, HOOP Taiwan and HOOP UK
