Our Trajectory
More than 40 years dignifying lives

We believe in the power of compassion, concrete action and the encounter between cultures.
Mother Clara Tome and Father Kato found the Emmanuel Support Group.
A shelter is created for children in situations of moral and material abandonment.
The health center opens thanks to the impetus of Father Kato and international support.
A space for older adults is inaugurated.
Father Kato delivers the children's home to the Bishopric of Callao, who assumes the work and the home changes its name.
