Ah, the lovely people I meet through my etsy shop! (www.strawberrypaintbrush.etsy.com) Lorissa from Denver plans on volunteering her time in Peru this year, please read her story and details about her trip and an art fundraiser she is having in April, on her blog:  "I’m planning a two week trip to Cuzco, Peru in June 2010, where I will do volunteer work with needy children who work on the streets and live in orphanages. I hope you enjoy reading about my journey. Please check back often, as I periodically update on the blog page. On June 6th, 2010, I will fly into Lima, Peru, which is on the Western Coast of Peru. Then transfer flights into Cuzco, which is in the southern part of Peru." If you want to support her trip, please go to her blog: http://volunteerperu.wordpress.com/about/ Love and peace! Tina
