Dear Supporters,
Here are some updates from Honduras and our project Pasos Pequeñitos:
Pasos Pequeñitos offers single mothers and fathers in Tegucigalpa access to reliable childcare. Particularly as the proportion of young mothers in Honduras is very high, many young women are dependent on full-day childcare to complete their education or earn a living for themselves and their children. In 2024, Pasos Pequeñitos provided care and three meals a day to 17 children between the ages of 1 and 12.
Throughout 2024, the implementation of the Montessori method has continued, with a strong focus on early childhood education to ensure the best possible development for the children. As Pasos Pequeñitos not only looks after children of kindergarten age, a special tutoring programme has been developed for older children so that they can be well accompanied and individually supported in their education.
Thanks to a partnership with a local health centre, regular medical check-ups have been organised for the children. Families are also supported by psychologists and social workers. In addition, families have been assisted through educational programs for parents, scholarships, and other forms of social assistance.
Thank you for your support, which makes all of this possible – we very much appreciate it!
Best wishes,
The entire team of PEN PAPER PEACE
