Sharing Christ’s love through Backpacks & Scholarships to students and families in Honduras.
The Need
- Many children are unable to attend school because their families cannot afford the mandatory uniforms or supplies
- Many schools are 1 or 2 rooms with all grades and a single teacher. Most are in remote villages, often several miles from homes, making transportation often impossible.
- The government only provides free education up through grade 6.
- High school education, typically vocational training, is private and out of reach for most families.
- Only 30% of children attend secondary school.
- The country struggles with the lack of educational resources, schools, and poor teacher training.
