Why give to Otra Cosa?

  • Rooted in Huanchaco

    We've worked alongside these communities for more than 20 years. Our team lives here, and our projects answer needs local families tell us about.

  • Registered in two countries

    A UK registered charity (no. 1133680) and a Peruvian NGO (no. 11126841), accountable on both sides of the Atlantic.

  • Gift Aid ready

    UK taxpayers can add 25% to every donation at no extra cost, so your generosity goes further.

Ready to make a difference?

Give once, or join our Amigos from £3 a month. Either way, you'll be part of every class, every beach clean and every swimming lesson.
