Peruvian Hearts

Peruvian Hearts is a nonprofit seeking to change the world one heart at a time. This charity was set up by Ana Dodson. Ana, herself, was an orphan from Peru. At age 11, she wanted to visit her homeland. When she and her adoptive monther Judi Dodson saw the low quality of life in the orphanage near Cuzco, she decided that she had to do something.

Back in Evergreen, Ana contacted the Rotary and other groups to help send resources to these people in need.

CNN provides a profile of Ana in their CNN Heroes feature.
