More Information About this ProjectProject Needs and BeneficiariesChildren in remote rural areas in Honduras have little or no chance to attend secondary schools, which are only available in urban areas. By bringing secondary schools to the communities this problem is eradicated and the children receive further education. ActivitiesFurther education should not just be for those living in urban areas. This programme provides the same opportunities as everyone in rural areas. With very small contributions from families and graduates, the school will then become sustainable. Funding InformationTotal Funding Received to Date: $327 Additional DocumentationThis project has provided additional documentation in a PDF file (projdoc.pdf). Resources
Why this Project is ImportantPotential Long Term ImpactOver the years this school will teach thousands. Because it will be run and funded by local communities in the future, it will also foster strong communities and ensure the indigenous populations are not swallowed up by development and ruralisation. Project Message
Living in a rural area immediately nullifies the children's ability to go to secondary school in the towns, due to the large distances, denying them an education Who is Running This ProjectContact

Latest Update from the FieldFirst year of secondary schoolBy Dom Williams - Director of Latin American Projects, August 06, 2008 06:08 PM
The children in our new secondary school, where we pay for the salaries of the teachers, have recently taken their mid-term exams, and the results seem to be good, which is a great step forward for the future. With 25 children between the ages of 12 and 24 receiving first-time secondary education now, the future looks good. In 2009 we plan to open up the school to surrounding villages and the numbers of students will rise dramatically.
