Dr Sharon Forrest

I have had the honour of being Mama Sharon to hundreds and hundreds of Peruvian children since 1992. Most of these precious children currently reside in ‘communities’ which we help support in the high Andean mountains. We also assist numerous families in the villages of Ollantaytambo and the Sacred Valley as well as Lima. Please be sure to read about our Projects.

​

I felt duty-bound to start a non-profit, because I realized that I could no longer do it all alone. More children require sponsorship plus the severely deprived elders needed help.

One of the main purposes of Paskay’s Programs is to empower young people who will make the world a better place for others, not just for themselves.

​

The impact of today's most powerful "social entrepreneurs" is rooted in who they were as young people. Guided by values they fully embrace; empathy, integrity and compassion, then went on from this essential foundation to teamwork and leadership. We encourage our youngsters to become caring, powerful change-makers, so that nothing can stop them in life. Developing these kinds of young leaders is Paskay’s greatest Mission. Carlos, Maria Lilliana, Cristian, Sister Yudid, Padre Rene, Marlene, Janet, Washi and Eddy, to name a few, are prime examples. Please go to SUCCESS STORIES to read about a few of our heart-warming success chronicles.

​

As you can see, much work needs to be done. The world would lose some of its brightness if the light of these children were not shining out into it.

​

More of the exceptional children that Paskay supports will come of age in time to take leadership roles in the completely transformed world predicted to come to pass over the next dozen years. We are proud and honoured that the ones mentioned above already have and are making a huge difference!

​

Let us welcome them. Let us support them. They are our future.
