Cusco Homeless Facilities

This is a call out for help locating homeless facilties in Cusco, Peru.


My fiancé and I were walking around Cusco and noticed a particularly high number of homeless people around. We researched a bit if there were any facilities for the homeless in the area but could not find any. We know there are places for children, but not for adults. We bought a bag of humitas from the woman in front of Gato's market (excellent!!!) and passed them out to some of the homeless, but there were still many more scattered around the city. With so many tourists coming here something could easily be done either a 1 sole tax at the airport or in restaurants or something like that. If anyone knows of any organizations to recommend in Cusco please let us know. Or if anyone wants to help start an organization in Cusco please let us know as well.
