Hogar and Jungle School Needs

We currently have several needs for our Children's Home and Jungle School.

[box content

Children's Home - Some projects at the Children's Home that are needed are: complete/repair electrical hookups & lighting, rewiring needed in some areas, fans for some rooms, toilet paper holders, towel racks, steel or wood shelving for indoor storage room and some rooms, laundry room sinks, clotheslines with posts, curtain rods for some rooms, plumbing help needed (many loose fixtures), etc. Please consider "sponsoring" one of these projects. Ask for costs.

Children's Home - A new generator to help us during the constant power outages. We have several refrigerators and freezers that need to keep running during these outages. Inquire for more information.

Children's Home - Powdered milk for the Children's Home monthly, $200.00.

Children's Home - sack of frozen chickens for a month to feed Hogar children - $250/month.

New property adjacent to Hogar  - Gravel fill, new cement block fence, gate, serpentine wire are needed for the adjacent property. This will be used for planting vegetables & fruit trees; raising chickens, cows, pigs, etc for Children's Home. Please inquire.

Jungle School- Re-painting of much of the Jungle School, inside and out. Please inquire.

Jungle School - Notebooks for the Jungle School for all the children. School supplies, backpacks, etc. Inquire about cost.

Jungle School - bottles of children's vitamins to provide a vitamin daily for 10 months per year to each child. We give out 200 vitamins daily, 5 days a week.

A new pickup truck.Our current pickup is over 25 years old and needs to be retired. With all the hauling we do of supplies to the Children's Home, Jungle School, and Villages, we really need a new truck to keep up with the demands. Please consider donating so we can purchase a new truck here in Honduras. The cost of a new truck will run $25,000+. Please inquire for more information.

Housing & Accommodations

Most volunteers fly into San Pedro Sula and then take a transfer flight or bus to La Ceiba to get to the Hogar Children's Home. La Ceiba is 190 km from San Pedro Sula. A few highlights are the Jungle Rivers of the Pico Bonito National Forest and the sun and sand of the Caribbean are only 15 minutes away. La Ceiba has an airport, a bus station and more taxis than anyone can count! It also has Internet cafes, restaurants and fast-foods, ATM machines, a mall, and good medical care. 
Please contact us for more information on housing and hostel options at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

HOTELS:

Local Transportation

Taxis cost L. 25 (slightly more than $1.50) to get around town.  Traveling by local buses is not recommended for safety reasons.

A taxi from the airport  to town will be about $15.00 per person.

San Pedro Sula considerations

Plan to land in San Pedro Sula at mid-day even if your flight will cost a little more. You will still have time to catch another short flight to La Ceiba or take the Hedman Alas bus. It arrives in La Ceiba around 6:30pm nightly except for holidays. The buses do not run on Honduran holidays so please check with us before making your reservations. If you must stay overnight in San Pedro Sula before coming to La Ceiba the next day, please make ALL arrangements from the USA or your native country before your arrival. You cannot stay in the San Pedro Sula airport overnight.

Arriving at La Ceiba by bus or flight

By landing in San Pedro Sula at mid-day, you can easily connect at the airport to the local airlines or buses that will take you to La Ceiba by late afternoon. It is difficult to have someone available to meet you if you arrive in La Ceiba after 8pm.  We recommend you use the Hedman Alas busline, the safest and nicest busline in Honduras.  You can buy a bus ticket in the San Pedro Sula airport when you arrive. There is always a bus that leaves early afternoon.Check bus schedules and prices online at https://www.hedmanalas.com.We also recommend SOSA Airlines if you decide to fly to La Ceiba. See their schedules and rates at: https://als.aerocrs.net/en

Where exactly is the Hogar and the Jungle School?
The Hogar is located about 8 miles outside of the city of La Ceiba and very close to the airport. The Jungle School is located in the opposite direction and is about 20 minutes up a dirt road along the Cangrejal River. 

The Hogar kids would love to see you!

    Work & Church Group Opportunities

    Helping Honduras Kids welcomes Christian Churches, Christian Mission teams, Medical and Dental Teams, Rotaries, University Clubs and Volunteer Work Teams to come and do Mission and service projects for HHK. Medical and dental missions are invaluable to helping HHK care for the medical and dental needs of our children.

     

    Hogar de Amor and Jungle School

    The Hogar de Amor and Jungle School are two of our largest projects. We have a lot to do at both sites and can use all the help we can get. Each work team is expected to provide supplies needed for their organization to complete these important projects.

    Please see this page for specific projects that are currently in need of work, help and funding.

    We also ask that all Churches, Mission Teams and work groups that will be helping with specific work projects to please fundraise before you come. The more funds you raise, the greater impact you will have on the projects you will be working on.

    Recent Group Volunteers

    DeHaven Baptist Church and the Franklin Noon Rotarary Club recently sent teams down to help build new bathrooms at the Jungle School and build a covered parking area at the Hogar de Amor. We appreciate all their efforts and hard work!

    DeHaven Baptist Church-smDeHaven Baptist Church

    FranklinNoonRotaryClubFranklin Noon Rotary Club

    It is very rewarding to HHK and to each member of the work or church team to give of themselves and donate their love, labor and dedicated service to complete needed projects for the children. Our children appreciate this service more than you will ever know! We look forward to your work or church team coming to Honduras soon to work. We know your group will grow to love the children like we do!

     

    We have several projects pending suited for volunteer groups. There are always other projects that come up, so please contact us for more information or visit this page, https://www.helpinghonduraskids.org/ways-to-give/current-pressing-needs

     

    Without groups like these, it would be very difficult to complete all the projects and take care of the kids like we want to.
