Recently, a spotting scope reached a new land in South America. Binoculars4charity supports the “Círculo de Investigación en Ornitología (CIO)”, an undergraduate study and research group created at the National University Agraria La Molina (UNALM) in Lima, Peru. The goals of CIO are to expand bird research and to help promote interest and engagement in the Peruvian community. Currently, the CIO has nearly 50 members and four active projects and initiatives, including monthly get-togethers, excursions, and workshops for bird identification, monitoring, conservation, women-empowering, and awareness-raising in different regions throughout Peru. We wish the CIO all the best with its current and future activities, and extend their gratitude to the donors of the scope.
