28th Ottawa Scouts - Peru 2013

28th Ottawa Scouts - Peru 2013 This August, the 28th Ottawa Scouts troop is going to Peru to assist with the reconstruction of Chincha Alta, near the epicentre of the 2007 earthquake.

We will be digging trenches and laying pipe to bring clean water to nursery schools. Scouts Canada youth are travelling to Chincha Alta, Peru from July 31st to August 21st 2013 to partner with Acceso International and the Grey Sisters of Pembroke. During our three weeks in Peru the team will help to install running water into a number of nursery schools. Some of these schools have never had runnin

g water and some of the current water systems were disrupted by an earthquake in 2007. The two partner organizations have rebuilt 24 classrooms since 2007 but only a few of these have toilets and sinks. Project work will consist mostly of construction, although the possible addition of two paramedics to the team could expand the provision of services further with an outreach medical capacity.
