Lobitos, Peru
$1 a day to change a life.
Change a child’s circumstances.
Nestled in the heart of Lobitos, a world-famous surf town in northern Peru, Guardian Peru Lobitos is transforming the lives of 42 local children who otherwise could not afford the opportunity to train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or access essential gear. Located near Talara Airport, this remote town offers limited pathways for youth development, making our program a vital resource for the community.
Through a dynamic partnership with Waves Lobitos, a nonprofit dedicated to surfing and skateboarding, Guardian Peru Lobitos provides a holistic environment where children thrive. The program goes beyond martial arts by incorporating mentorship, academic tutoring, and surf and skate instruction. This comprehensive support system is designed to inspire the kids to set meaningful goals, stay active, and grow together in a positive, nurturing community.
In this unique collaboration, children benefit from a network of dedicated mentors, skilled coaches, and passionate instructors who guide them on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Whether on the mat, in the classroom, or riding the waves, Guardian Peru Lobitos helps these young individuals build confidence, resilience, and a sense of belonging.
