In Honduras, 10 times more boys than girls are abandoned to live on the streets. In 1979, El Hogar de Amor y Esperanza — “The Home of Love and Hope,” a mission project of the Episcopal Diocese of Honduras — took in five of those destitute boys, and gave them food, shelter, education, a trade and self-confidence. Today, 26 years later, El Hogar serves 200 boys in three centers: an elementary school, a technical institute and an agricultural school. El Hogar has graduated hundreds of young men who participate fully in Honduran society, earning middle-class wages for their families while continuing to live the values they learned at “Home.” It has a waiting list that it tries to accommodate, to save even more young lives. Its budget is austere: $1,000 feeds all the boys for a week, $500 pays a teacher’s salary for one month — so even modest contributions are a significant help. If you become a donor, you will hear from the boys, and you will even have the opportunity to work more intensively with the program if you choose. This is an opportunity for you to enhance your own foreign policy.
