Overview
Mission
To promote and celebrate Peruvian culture with the community at large.
What it reported doing in 2024
House of Peru Lawn Program: We had the presence of the Peruvian Consul in Los Angeles Jos Luis Chvez, members of Pro Marina Filial San Diego C. de F. Carlos Chaparro Sagarnaga, C. de F. Carlos Nalvarte Vizcarra and the representative of the Marina de Guerra del Per en San Diego, C. de F. Nelson Pinzas Vargas. The program was animated by Peruvian singer Rosa Los Santos accompanied by the professional percussionist Ryan Chesire, who got the hearts of everyone singing emblematic Peruvian songs and making everyone dance on stage! We had an amazing time with music, dance, food, raffles, and vendors, but more importantly, sharing our love for Peru.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
