The Region of Puno is part of the poorest regions in Peru with about a third of the population living in poverty. Out of every three "Puneños," one lives in poverty, trying to survive in extreme conditions caused by the very cold weather of the "Altiplano" - Andean Plateau - with temperatures below zero during the majority of the months of the year. Several non-profit organizations have been created in Puno to help the inhabitants by feeding or educating them. These institutions are usually managed by local Peruvians or foreigners who have decided to settle in this area of Peru.
Several non-profit organizations organize volunteering experiences in Puno and its surroundings. In sorne cases, these non-profit organizations offer Spanish classes and activities to learn the customs of the locals. Participating as a volunteer can be a life-changing experience and these tours are usually full of fun activities and touching experiences.
