In 2023, we sent 44 international shipments to help people in need.
10 of those shipments went to Honduras.
More than 48 percent of the population lives below the poverty line in Honduras. According to Food For The Poor, “unemployment, gang violence and a widespread lack of opportunity contribute to the challenging landscape. Chronic malnutrition is rampant in Honduras. Infant and child mortality rates are also high. Honduras remains one of the most vulnerable countries to natural disasters in the world… As a result, the most vulnerable populations in Honduras continue to suffer from hunger and food insecurity.”
Their daily circumstances are worse than most of us will face in our lifetime. But, in the midst of their worst days, we are able to help bring hope.
The kits, Rice Meals, medical supplies, sewing machines, and more that we send when requested are tangible items that change lives in intangible ways. They give hope for a child’s future. They empower a mother to make money on her own. They meet needs while also reminding each recipient that they have been prayed for by someone they will never meet, and they are loved by God.
