Today, on International Women’s Day we hear from two of our female Project Leaders, Yolkey who is running a project with approximately 40 young girls in the west of Nepal; and Deysi, who last year ran a project in a very remote region of Peru for approximately 30 boys and girls. In their own words, their answers to the questions below serve to remind us of the daily challenges both they and their girls are facing and we hope that their Huracan Projects really can help to play a role in changing attitudes and changing mindsets.

We are thrilled to have been selected by Escape the City as one of the top 100 organisations to escape to in 2021. If you are passionate about what we do and would like to join our team of Trustees, do please get in touch.

We’re delighted that The Huracan Foundation has been selected as Brambletye School’s charity partner for the academic year 2020/21.

Despite launching our request for new project applications at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen that the crisis has clearly heightened the need for our work.
