Helping Honduras Kid’s mission is to improve the life of orphaned, abandoned, abused and/or neglected children who otherwise would be in government institutions. This non-profit VOLUNTEER organization manages a Children’s Home, Kids Jungle School, and other community outreaches opened its doors on May 7, 2007 to its first HOGAR DE AMOR Children’s Home (orphanage). The Hogar de Amor (Home of Love) is located in the city of La Ceiba. It currently houses 22 orphan children who live in the home, with three live-in Honduran staff and rotating international volunteers.

Helping Honduras Kids opened the Jungle School doors in February 2007. The school currently has 77 students in grades 1-6 and 15 students in kindergarten and is located in a steep jungle area. Some of the children attending this school walk three hours on slippery trails round trip every day just to have the opportunity to get an education and go to school. Most of these children live in remote, isolated areas and face poor economic conditions. Their families rely mostly on agriculture crops and when the crops do poorly, most struggle to find food.

At the Helping Honduras Kids Jungle School, students are provided with uniforms, school supplies, backpacks, personal items, medical care, vitamins and a daily hot lunch. This one lunch meal is often the only nutritious meal the children receive all day long. Most of these children would never have the opportunity to attend school, if it was not for Helping Honduras Kids.
