Help Guide Edwar"Edu" Zuniga open a Mobile Market
Donation protected
My name is Edwar Efrain Zuniga Pumacayo, I am 37 years old and have a beautiful family in Cusco, Peru with two sons. You may rememeber me as "Edu".
For the past 20 years I have worked as a tour guide, and the last 7 years with Amazonas Explorer.
Covid19 has destroyed my work as a guide so I want to reinvent myself as a Food Distributer to be able to provide for my family until tourism returns.
If I can raise $ 2,000 (£1612) I will invest it in the following way:
1: I have my truck, which needs general maintenance due to its age to be able to use it at work. Total - $ 300
2: The purchase or creation of a trailer for the car and thus I’ll be able to carry many more products for daily sale. Total $ 600
3: The purchase of various basic necessities to sell on such as:
a - Meats of all kinds,
b - Various vegetables
c- Groceries in general. Total $ 800
4: The purchase of various items such as electronic scales, a speaker to advertise the products being sold, containers and, of course, biosafety implements for my protection. Total $ 300
How it works:
I, Paul Cripps, owner of Amazonas Explorer have agreed to help set up these Gofundme crowdfunding pages for my guides who are struggling to make ends meet whilst the tourism industry implodes in Peru. We hope it will be back one day soon, but for now, they need to reinvent themselves in order to feed their families.
The funds will be collected here in the UK into my account and then I will pay the exact equivalent in Peruvian soles from my Peruvian account into their personal accounts to minimise bank transfer fees and exchange rate fluctuations.
I will also personally contribute the first $150 of each proposal to help them get started. This will be donated directly into their accounts to avoid charges.
Our guides provide a big part of the magic of any trip to Peru and it is their personal touches, professionalism, wit and charm that makes each trip they guide unforgettable.
So, if you enjoyed your trip to Peru with one of our guides, please give what you can.
I know times are difficult everywhere but these guides are true heroes, their projects are borne out a desire to survive this pandemic and come out the other side better for the experience.
If you can't donate, please share and spread the word to help them achieve their goals.
Let me take this opportunity to thank you so much for anything you can do.
