About this Fundraiser

“On a typical Mission Trip, participants feel a sense of accomplishment…afterward, they talk about what they DID and who they HELPED. On a Help One Now Pilgrimage, participants feel a sense of tension and unrest…afterward, they talk about what they LEARNED and what they HOPE to accomplish moving forward. They become advocates. The end of the trip becomes a starting line.”
-Lamar Stockton, Help One Now International Director

As a Linchpin Partner church, this Pilgrimage Trip will be a special time for you to experience the tangible fruit of your labor. You will meet the children you sponsor, see the projects you funded, and gain first hand insight into the overall impact of your commitment to partnership.
Vaccines

Besides being up-to-date with routine shots, the following are also recommended:

-Hepatitis A & B

- Typhoid

-Yellow Fever

We also suggest getting a prescription for an anti-malaria medication. There are several different prescriptions you can choose from.

Your local travel clinic can go over the different options with you and help you decide what will be best for you. If you've done a lot of international travel before, chances are you've had a lot of these immunizations already.

STEP
Each traveler will be registered with the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP). This is a free service provided by the US Government for citizens traveling abroad that will allow the US Embassy in Peru to better assist you in the event of an emergency.

Insurance

Help One Now will purchase trip cancellation and medical evacuation insurance for each of you (included in trip cost). You will be emailed an insurance card to print out and keep with your passport while traveling about a week before departure.

Supplies / Packing list

It’s a good idea to pack as light as possible. Here are a few things, however, that you will definitely need-

1. Passport

2. Shot Record

3. Snacks

4. Power adapters and converters

5. Sunscreen/Mosquito Repellent

6. Water bottle

Optional: Kammok, Dragonfly mosquito net, etc

Currency Exchange

Peru prefers VERY crisp bills, and large denominations will likely get a better exchange rate. When exchanging currency, your best bet will be a nice new $100 bill.

Also, notify credit card companies that you will be travelling so your card doesn’t get denied.
