A NOTE FROM OUR PRESIDENT

“On behalf of myself and my wonderful committee, I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you for being valued members of the club and the Indian community that we are a part of in Peru. Without your participation, commitment, contributions and support, we would not be able to boast the rich tapestry of community events and programs that we have hosted over the last few decades. It has been an honor and privilege to lead and serve the association these last couple of months. I hope the legacy of IAP lives on with your continued encouragement.”
