      #6GringosinPerú

      "Try to blend" we laughingly whispered. Yeah right! When 6 Americans go to San Juan de Lurigancho for a week it is impossible not to cause a scene! Our matching Miracle shirts, our terrible spanish, our seemingly enormous height...all of it made for quite a spectacle last month! We got a lot of stares and heard the word gringo whispered constantly. When we ran into a friend living there she didn't look surprised at all to see us. This is because she had been texted TWICE

      A day outside of San Juan de Lurigancho

      On August 1, 2019 Make a Miracle's scholarship students left at 4am for the province of Huarochirí. It was very early to get up, and many of the students had to sleep at Casa Milagro, our study center, because they live far away. The excitement of reaching our destination was felt as soon as our bus arrived. Inside the bus, our guide Andrés gave us directions to be prepared for our tour in Huarochirí. At 6:40 in the morning we arrived in Matucana, the capital of the provinc

      We Are All Children

      Have you ever felt lonely? Well, that's my case. I feel lonely many times, but when I'm around these lovely children, my world changes greatly. Star Kids is one of my favorite things to do because I can play with them, sing out loud, dance. It does not matter if you don't know the children, because they make you feel like family with ease. Going there and hearing them say: "Hermano, buenos días" (Good morning, brother), it doesn't matter how I feel in that moment, they always

      What graduation meant to me

      What graduation meant to me

      When I came to live in Lima, Peru, there were so many no-fun and stressful things that I needed to do. I needed to apply for my residency visa, sell my car, move all of my things into a storage unit, as well as figure out my school situation. I was about halfway through my degree and wasn’t sure how I would be able to finish. If I’m being honest, my first reaction was just to not finish my education. I thought, why do I need a college degree anyways? I am already going to be

      Stars & Strikes goes to Peru

      I just wanted to share with everybody how impactful my recent trip to San Juan de Lurigancho was. I was blessed to have with me my wife Carolyn, and my brother in law Eric (Director of Payroll at Stars and Strikes) and his mom Edith as well as my business partner's children, Lindsay and Joe Albano. I am always amazed at how much impact a couple of people can have in just a few days. In less than one week we were able to build 5 new structures: 3 homes for some amazing famil

      Our Remote Year Partnership

      Every month we host a group of "digital nomads" for a Positive Impact Day. These people are travelling the world together, spending a month in 12 different countries. They all have different types of careers that allow them to work remotely. Remote Year provides them with a state of the art, shared workspace, as well as an apartment in each country. On the weekends they explore the country together, and one day per month they have the option of giving back. Their goal:

      Meet the 2019 scholarship recipients

      Make a Miracle is proud to support education through college scholarships. Jack, Rachel, Lady, Rosa, Doris, Dayana, Edith and I held 3 days of interviews with some incredibly inspiring young people from San Juan de Lurigancho, Peru. Some were held outside during a house build, some at Los Pinos school during gardening & building, some at our office before our workshop. We ran out of tissues early on. We laughed, cried, hugged and loudly yelled "aprobado" or approved 14 ti

      A New Home

      The above pictures are from June, 2017. Our team was painting a home across the way and this woman asked if she could have the leftover paint to paint her door. We said, "Sure! We will do it for you." 2 years later Make a Miracle received an application for a new home filled out by a neighbor of hers, Aurora, one of our scholarship students. When she got the application, Giovanna immediately recognized her from that other trip. It was so cool to spend time with this wom

      Star Kids Soccer Championship 2019

      Make a Miracle's 2nd annual Soccer Championship or "Campeonato" was a huge success. Our team and volunteers put together a wonderful day of fun, laughs and competition. Soccer is a great way to teach kids about teamwork and good sportsmanship. Besides the soccer competition, we also hosted an eating contest, tug of war and several other games to get everyone involved. The weather was beautiful and families, neighbors and friends came out to enjoy our Campeonato 2019. A h
