Founder
Maritza Castro

Maritza Castro was born in Lambayeque, in the north of Peru, and at an early age she migrated to the United States, where in a few years she managed to create her own company based in Atlanta. The harsh economic conditions that she lived in her childhood turned her into a woman with a great altruistic and visionary sense. She founded the organization Lazos de Ayuda in 2008 with the mission of executing shelter and protection programs for low-income children and families in northern Peru. Her mission and vision has been to provide education, health and spirituality so that children and their mothers can develop cognitive skills, artistic skills and receive health support. The foundation is aimed at forming values and principles, ensuring that the interior life and the environment of individuals is pleasant and with a projection of constant development. The Peruvian community leader is working on new projects from Atlanta, Georgia, to Peru, through a work that seeks the support of companies so that together in joint work they can break down obstacles and cross borders in favor of the most vulnerable and, most importantly, see smiles and hope in the faces of the families.
