Audio New Testament in Miskito – $40

Desk & Chair for Future Christian, Bilingual School – $50

 Reach Out Honduras dreams of a Christian, Bilingual middle and high school for poor children of the La Moskitia region of Honduras. Right now, the public middle school is over-crowded, under-funded and a haven for illegal drug activity. There is not a consistent public high school option for poor children. There is a private high school; however, the tuition is out of reach for 90% of the children of this region.

Help us begin to put wings on this dream as we raise funds for actual desks and chairs to put in a future school. The desks will be made here in Puerto Lempira, boosting the economy right here in our town.   We hope to have the school ready to accept students in Grade 7 by February of 2014.   Click HERE to donate a desk & chair in your family’s name or in the name of another person.

 

 Sponsor a High School Student – $25, 50, 75 or 100 per month

 

Students from Puerto Lempira and other surrounding villages will be able to attend a wonderful Christian boarding school in Copan, Honduras.    The families of these poor students pay $25 each month to send their students;  sponsors will partner for whatever amount they are able up to $100.    Please contact us for more information on individual students who need partners.

 

Sponsor a College Student/ College Scholarship Fund$100 per month

The first 2 recipients of the Reach Out Honduras College Scholarship fund will be Brian & Melchor Alastero. YOU can directly impact these young men.

Sponsors, if interested, can correspond with scholarship recipients on whatever level desired.

Melchor and Brian Alastero have dreams to attend medical school. It is a very rare thing for a Miskito child to even imagine themselves capable of ever attending medical school. The current doctors here are all from the interior of Honduras or from Cuba. These Christian young men dream of great things, but need your help.

Brian wants to be an MD and Melchor a Doctor of Microbiology. These 2 have a vision to return to La Moskitia and help their family and their community. These 2 are world-changers! One life changing many lives! Be a part of it!!

Please contact us for more information on Melchor & Brian.

 

Send a box of donated goods to Honduras – $100

This fund will help with shipping costs of a box of donated items to Honduras.   Donations in the shipment will be collected through various charity drives throughout the year.

Missionary Support – Waits Family – any amount

 Alex & Laura Waits are missionaries to the Miskito people of the remote La Moskitia region of Honduras.   They are faith-based missionaries which means that they rely fully on God’s provision through churches and individuals to meet their monthly living expenses.   For 2012, Reach Out Honduras has set up a special fund for donations marked for the Waits family.

The Waits moved to Honduras in 2010 to follow God’s call to live and work among the indigenous Miskito people. They have 4 children: Aidan, Arlee, Adam & Aaron.  To read more about their family, visit The Making of a Family.

Donations ear-marked for the Waits family are tax-deductible through Reach Out Honduras and will be used to provide support directly to Alex & Laura to continue the work God has placed on their hearts in Puerto Lempira, Honduras.     Donate here.

 

 

Thank you for considering a donation to Reach Out Honduras this Christmas.

May the love of Christ overflow in your heart as you celebrate our Savior’s birth.
