To date, more than 150,000 individuals and about 300 companies have supported Diospi Suyana’s various projects with donations totaling over 54 million USD. With these funds, the organization built the Diospi Suyana Hospital, a dental and eye clinic, a children’s home, the Colegio Diospi Suyana, and a media center. In Lima, Diospi Suyana acquired a guesthouse in 2015 that serves as its base of operations. In addition, the number of beds has doubled thanks to an expansion on the first floor, and an orthopedic workshop has been established. Since 2022, Diospi Suyana has purchased several plots of land on the outskirts of Curahuasi, which serve as campgrounds during the annual festivals. A covered event arena for 5,000 spectators is located immediately adjacent to the hospital buildings.
To date, these funds have been used to treat 633,000 patients through July 2026. Patients’ contributions account for about 30% of the monthly budget. The hospital has a capacity of 100 beds. In addition to the outpatient clinic with 16 examination rooms, the hospital’s departments include two intensive care units, a physical therapy department, an occupational therapy department, a modern laboratory, six operating rooms, and an X-ray department equipped with CT and MRI scanners. In 2010, we opened the dental and eye clinics. In 2017, we built a bungalow to serve as an orthopedic workshop.
The Diospi-Suyana School comprises nine buildings with 27 classrooms, including specialized rooms for physics, chemistry, biology, shop class, music, and computer science. A library, cafeteria, and gym round out the facilities. One of the buildings houses the kindergarten. The school is currently being expanded to accommodate two classes per grade level (kindergarten, lower school, and upper school) for a total of 700 students.
The media center has one TV studio and two radio studios. In total, Diospi Suyana has acquired 13 FM and TV licenses in the regions of Apurímac, Cusco, Madre de Dios, Puno, and Ayacucho. In the long term, the broadcast area is to be expanded gradually.
A Christian community center is scheduled to open on the festival grounds at the end of August 2026. Equipped with conference rooms and 60 beds, it will be able to host all kinds of activities.
With 250 Peruvian employees currently working in the hospital, school, and media center, Diospi Suyana is one of the most important employers in the state of Apurímac. Its long-term operations are funded by a large international support group, which had 1,161 members as of July 2026. The Diospi Suyana Foundation serves as an additional source of funding. The Peruvian government provides assistance through VAT refunds and a discount on the electricity bill. The support networks of the missionaries, who do not receive salaries from Diospi Suyana, play a major role. By mid-2026, more than 250 long-term missionaries had served in the various areas of our mission. They came from 17 countries. The typical length of a mission assignment is three years.
Diospi Suyana is recognized as a nonprofit organization in Peru, Germany, and the United States. Its financial situation is regularly reviewed in these three countries. The low administrative costs—at almost exactly 5%—are due to the high level of volunteer work. In 2008, the daily newspaper *Die Welt* recognized Diospi Suyana as a model of responsible stewardship of donations. Our mission organization has been awarded the donation seal of approval by the German Evangelical Alliance. This award is preceded by a detailed audit conducted by a state-certified public accountant. (As of July 3, 2026)
