Amantani
Cusco, Peru
Our commitment to helping the indigenous young people of rural Peru
At Far & Wild, we firmly believe that travel gives us new and varied ways to contribute positively to the world. That's why we're excited to announce our partnership with Amantani, a charity committed to uplifting underprivileged communities in Peru through education and cultural preservation.
Centred around Cusco, Amantani works to break the cycle of poverty by providing access to quality education and empowering young people to embrace their cultural heritage while gaining the skills necessary for a brighter future, something that Far & Wild is very proud to contribute to.
About Amantani
Amantani is a charitable organisation that supports the education and well-being of indigenous Quechua young people and their families in Peru. Their main project is focused on facilitating access to tertiary education (whether that is technical college or university) for young indigenous people from rural communities to improve their employability. In addition to education, Amantani fosters a deep connection to the young people's cultural roots, ensuring that traditional practices and languages are preserved. Through their holistic approach, Amantani not only equips young people with the tools they need to succeed but also strengthens communities by reinforcing the value of cultural identity and self-sufficiency.
How We're Making a Difference
As part of our partnership, Far & Wild donates a portion of every booking to Amantani, directly supporting their vital work in the Peruvian Andes. But our commitment goes beyond donations – we also invite our customers to engage with Amantani’s initiatives during their travels.
When you book a trip to Peru with us, you have the option to participate in one of Amantani’s unique cultural experiences. Whether you visit rural communities and learn about traditional Quechua practices, or take culturally focused tours of Cusco with the young people trained in tourism through Amantani's support - these immersive experiences offer a meaningful way to connect with the local communities and see firsthand the impact of your support.
