About us

AMURT is an international relief and development organization working in 25 countries. We work with marginalized people to help them become self-sufficient in the basic necessities of life: food and water, education, shelter and healthcare. We broaden the notion of family to include everyone in need of assistance. We feel that all people should have equal opportunity to flourish in life.

Kristine Richards, from Blair, Nebraska. She came to Peru in 2000, with a view to teach people and organize and supervise social service projects. In addition to the Ruruapuk project, she has another two projects. "Machu Picchu Stars" is an employment and life skills project for a group of hearing disabled women who make hand made dolls and children’s clothes. The other is a Neohumanist pre-school in Los Cedros, a middle class suburb in Lima, Peru. Kristine began her career as a registered nurse. She worked from 1984 to 2000 in Japan, Taiwan, and Brazil running progressive schools.

Web page design - Kristine and AMURT volunteers prepared these web pages together with Karl of iConsultancy in order to assist the Rurapuk collective.
