About Community Outreach

outreach

H

elping Honduras Kids subsidizes a Stay In School outreach program that encourages boys and girls (elementary and high school ages) to remain in school.  This program helps to pay some of the costs for families that otherwise could not afford to send their children to attend school.  In Honduras, it costs approximately $75-$150 a year to pay for a child to be enrolled in school for one full year.

HHK provides school supplies (backpacks, notebooks, calculators, etc) and school uniforms, as well as subsidizing part of the costs for school and to ride the school bus. Many large families, especially in rural areas, have to make a choice which family members get to attend school.   Often times they can only afford for their sons to attend school.  Girls often stay home, due to poor economic conditions.  HHK needs your donations to help these under-privileged children to attend school.  HHK currently is paying for transportation costs for some of the children who live near the La Ceiba dump.  Your donation to HHK reaches many children and especially promotes school attendance at the Jungle School. It also helps us support local poor families in the surrounding areas and mountains who would not otherwise be able to feed themselves or their children on a regular basis.

 

FYI

Helping Honduras Kids is a 501 c3 organization headquartered in the USA, and as such your donations may be tax deductible. You will immediately receive a receipt by email for tax purposes. Because we do not receive government funding, we rely totally on individuals to sponsor a child for $39 per month or make donations toward specific projects. Volunteers are also needed. Sponsorship is often a rewarding experience for both sponsor and child. The needy children in our care will enjoy sharing letters, pictures, and talking by Skype, it’s all up to you and what you would like. You do not need to speak Spanish as we can provide translation assistance. Please take a moment to review the photos and profiles and give the gift of hope by sponsoring one of these beautiful children. We have additional children in need of sponsorship in our Jungle School (very poor and often malnourished children), Grandma’s kids (poor children without parents), or those who have graduated from the Jungle School and now need money and encouragement to attend and complete high school. Thank you and God Bless, Dr. David Ashby, Founder, Helping Honduras Kids
