A project meeting the needs of underprivileged pre-school children through education, food and clothing.
At Honduras Children, we are regularly involved and value collaboration with like-minded organizations and individuals working to create a better quality of life in the El Porvenir / La Ceiba north coast area.
With this in mind, we support (but do not operate) several other projects in the area by providing screened volunteers, training and material supplies.
Along with international volunteers from all over the world, we have hosted university groups from Duke University (Project HEAL), VA Tech and Drew University as well as youth groups from religious and teen organizations. We sincerely welcome volunteers and work-groups so please feel free to apply!
What we do?
Our work with children started in 2005 working out of our house.
Kinder Sí Se Puede is a forward-thinking and caring kindergarten that provides the time, space and opportunity for young children to flourish and develop their emerging skills. We take great pleasure in educating young preschoolers to help them develop confidence and self-esteem and we are proud of the achievements of our children and staff. We maintain high standards of education and behavior to ensure our kindergarten is a safe and happy place in which to learn. Kinder Sí Se Puede is totally free of tuition and supplies cost.
Where we work?
Honduras Children volunteer projects are in the beach community of El Porvenir Atlantida which is located on the north coast of Honduras . The jungle rivers of the Pico Bonito National Forest and the sun and sand of the Caribbean Sea are just minutes from where our volunteers live and work.
El Porvenir is a safe place to live and work.
Our mission is to better the lives of the next Honduran generation by providing underprivileged children with an education, breakfast, and clothing in our Kindergarten.
We are looking for energetic, optimistic individuals and groups who have a passion for working with children. We welcome volunteers of any race, religion, or country of origin. We accept volunteers who are 18 years or older.
Why choose us?Honduras Children is small, but with the energy of devoted volunteers, we are enriching lives and providing opportunities for children who would otherwise have none. In our “Sí se puede” kindergarten (Spanish for “Yes you can”) we inspire the kids to do their best each and everyday, breaking the poverty cycle through education.

Social Impact
We have graduated approximately 175 children since we have started the kinder in 2009. We work with single mothers that work in the pineapple fields for very little money each day. Our kinder education is much more superior to the education they would receive in the public school. We also give the parents food for the rest of the family.
We provide a nutritious breakfast for the child each morning. We also provide clothing and medications should the child get sick.
