Mission Statement “Machu Picchu Stars”

We have just finished the Mission Statement for Machu Picchu Stars:

Poverty is one of the biggest causes of disabilities.  People with disabilities are the poorest of the poor in any country.  People with disabilities don´t have disadvantages because of their disabilities.  The disadvantages experienced by the disabled  arise because of the barriers to opportunites  that society puts in their way. 
  Machu Picchu Stars is a project that seeks to eliminate the blocks that hearing disabled people experience and give them access to a life with dignity.  Our main focus is to provide work opportunities which help the hearing disabled integrate into society,  become independent, and  lead productive lives.  We strive to do this in a holistic way by also addressing  educational and health care needs.
