We’re battling Honduras’s high unemployment rate by creating jobs and training opportunities for local nationals. All of our program directors, contractors, and suppliers are Honduran. 60 Hondurans work for the organization.
Village councils and parents’ committees are involved with our school builds from beginning to end. They help with planning and are in charge of maintenance and upkeep. They provide the labor and as many construction materials as they can. The local government plays an important role as well. They connect us to locate communities in need and provide heavy machinery and supplies.
We invest in local leadership, partnerships with the local government, and income-generating projects to make sure our programs last for generations. In the US, we’re creating a diverse donor base and educating our supporters through workshops, summits, and trips to Honduras.
We play a supporting role to community leaders who are already working heroically to address the education crisis in Honduras. Our international staff & volunteers work alongside them in solidarity.
