The Amazon Hope 2 Boat, moored outside a rural village in Loreto, Peru.

Amazon Hope is a project based in Loreto in northern Peru, run by Scripture Union Peru (Unión Bíblica del Perú) in partnership with The Vine Trust (Scotland).

The project includes a health clinic in Puerto Belen, Iquitos, and two medical ships – called Amazon Hope 1 and 2 – which make monthly trips along the Amazon and other rivers in Loreto to provide medical assistance to rural riverside communities. The project plans to undertake activities besides strict medical work, including water supply projects.
