Families with a handicapped child are the most vulnerable community in the very poor region of Northern Peru. Since 2008, RBC of Michigan has been dedicated to reducing the crushing effects of poverty in the lives of families with one or more handicapped children. Providing a nutrition supplement of 50% of the monthly nutritional needs of 200 families. They receive a 70,000 calorie basket of rice, lentils, and cooking oil. Most of these families receiving aid can't explain how they are fed after the supplement is expended. They're in a semi-desert region that borders the foot hills of the Andes Mountains. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for a single mother to return to her home after taking her child to physical therapy to discover her house robbed.
