CURRENT PROJECTS
Respira Peru - Australia Campaign/Promocion Australia
What is “Respira Perú”?
“Respira Perú” is a campaign organized by the Peruvian Episcopal Conference, the Educational Group San Ignacio de Loyola and the National Society of Industries. The campaign’s aim is to confront the situation so many Peruvian citizens are facing at the moment. In particular many infected Peruvians are unable to afford oxygen bottles. The money collected on behalf of Respira Peru will be used to help the areas with the greatest need.
The Peruvian media has many stories of the anguish felt by family members of people who are fighting Covid-19. The families of many of those infected need to purchase oxygen but are unable to buy it because of its prohibitive cost. In many places because of speculation and exploitation of the situation, the cost of a cubic metre of oxygen has gone from 12 soles to somewhere between 50 ($17 AUD) and 200 soles ($70 AUD). The total cost of an oxygen tank has gone up to 4,500 soles ($1550 AUD).
​
Peru is currently going through a harrowing time due to the ravages of Covid-19. Up to February 25th, the country more than 1,300,000 infections and more than 45,000 deaths. It ranked eighteenth in the world for the most Infections and fourth in South America.
The Peru-Australian Association Inc and the Australian Solidarity Group with Peru re COVID-19 responds to the distress many Peruvians are suffering.
We are urgently asking for your help. Please donate as much as you can. Peru is in desperate need of your support. Many people are dying because of lack of oxygen, mechanical ventilators, medicines, etc.
The money that you donate will reach Respira Peru.

¿Qué es “Respira Perú?
​
“Respira Perú” es una campaña organizada por la Conferencia Episcopal Peruana, el Grupo Educativo San Ignacio de Loyola y la Sociedad Nacional de Industrias para hacer frente a la crisis en la que viven miles de compatriotas debido a la falta de oxígeno. El dinero recaudado por “Respira Perú” ayuda a las zonas del Perú donde más se necesitan. Esta iniciativa está devolviendo las esperanzas a los pacientes que se encuentran en estado crítico por el COVID-19.
La prensa mediática del Perú informa sobre la angustia de familiares de pacientes graves que buscan oxígeno y no pueden adquirirlo debido al costo. En muchos lugares la especulación y explotación hacen que el metro cubico de oxígeno, que normalmente se vendía antes de la pandemia a 12 soles, haya subido a 50 y hasta 200 soles. Mientras el precio de los balones de 10 metros cúbicos ha llegado a la exorbitante suma de 4,500 soles.
​
El Perú atraviesa actualmente un momento angustioso debido a los estragos del Covid-19. Hasta el 25 de febrero, el país más de 1.300.000 contagios y más de 45.000 muertes. Ocupó el decimoctavo lugar en el mundo por la mayor cantidad de infecciones y el cuarto en América del Sur.
​
Las organizaciones Perú-Australia Association Incorporated y el Grupo Australiano de Solidaridad con el Perú acerca del Covid-19 responden a la preocupación que expresan muchos peruanos frente a este gran problema.
Por tal motivo estamos organizando una campaña de donación de dinero que servirá para apoyar las carencias sanitarias, como adquisición de oxígeno, de ventiladores mecánicos, medicinas, etc.
​
El dinero que usted done llegará a la organización “Respira Perú”.
