Charities for children
When the village of Villa Soleada was first built in Honduras, we witnessed wide spread illiteracy and a zero percent graduation rate. Not one person from the community had graduated from high school. This has changed dramatically with a focus on scholarships and charities for children inside the village.
For the past ten years, numerous street gangs have tried to recruit Honduran boys and teenagers in our community, but thanks to supporters like you, thirty eight teenagers have been fighting back by attending school through our scholarship program.
This year ten of them graduated from middle schools, high schools and vocational schools throughout the city of El Progresso. The path to education is difficult to follow in Honduras as many kids have to work from an early age.
With your support, we are reversing what was once zero percent into a near one hundred percent graduation rate within one generation. With several students that are now college bound, Villa Soleada may soon become the village with the highest educational level per capita in the entire country.
Congratulations again to all the students and thank you for your unconditional support in charities for children.
