Anahí Camero Herrera Anahí Camero Herrera What do you do in Limakids? I am charged with running the outreach clinic and coordinating health campaigns that we sometimes undertake for partner institutions. This involves identifying and finding kids on the streets in need of medical care and getting them to the clinic. I also deliver training for the coaches of the soccer teams so they can work effectively with our target population. What is the change you hope to make through your work with Limakids? First, generate the process of change through promotion of a healthier life style for the people living on the streets, and second, sensitize society at large about the problems faced by many children in Peru. What do you like most about Limakids? The direct contact with the people that we work with, which is to say with kids that are on the streets. I also like the way in which Limakids, through novel and creative use of sports (soccer) and art (photography), helps us to get closer to the kids we seek to help. |
