Colibri Fundraising Project
We seek to empower the National Association of the Kidnapped, Detained and Disappeared of Peru (ANFASEP).
ANFASEP works to attain justice in human rights in the community of Ayacucho, Peru, following twenty years of violence that began in 1980, leaving approximately 68,000 dead. ANFASEP’s mission evokes the revitalization of the indigenous community that suffered the consequences of constant terror and brutal internal warfare.
Founded with the hope of recovering the disappeared, ANFASEP functions not only as a form of collective grieving and support, but also as a force of advocacy for victim’s rights.
In specific, donations will directly support:
-Operations costs for the Museum of Memory located in Ayacucho, Perú.
-Funding for the salary of a trained guide for the Museum of Memory, a major source of community advocacy and mobilization in the indigenous community.
-The costs of mural repairs on the exterior of the Museum, a source of visibility and a means of remembrance.
-Alleviation of travel expenses for ANFASAP members´ outreach and advocacy trips to provincial bases in outlying areas of Ayacucho, as well as to the capital, Lima.
