Volunteer in a community development program bringing hope, healing, and empowerment to the people of mountain villages around the community of San Matias, Honduras.  Deliver and install clean water filtration systems to families, pour concrete floors in homes, teach in a local school, or assist with medical/dental clinics.  Aside from having some of the region's most extensive tropical rainforests, stunning landscapes, and abundant wildlife, Honduras boasts a rich history and culture influenced by the Mayan civilization, Spanish colonization, and Afro-Caribbean traditions.  See it all for yourself on this six-day adventure!

Volunteer initiatives are intended to solve real-world problems, identified by our host community partners. All projects are designed to support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

1. Construction and Architecture: By volunteering to pour concrete floors and help with infrastructure development, participants gain practical experience in construction, building techniques, and community development.

2. Health Science: Assisting with medical and dental clinics provides participants with hands-on experience in health care, medical support, and the importance of health services in underserved communities.

3. Education and Training: Teaching at local schools directly connects to the field of education, where participants can engage with curriculum development, teaching methods, and the importance of education in promoting sustainable development.

4. Environmental Science/Studies: Installing clean water filtration systems and working in tropical rainforests ties into environmental science, promoting sustainable practices, resource management, and ecological awareness.

5. Social and Human Services: The focus on community development, empowerment, and promoting human rights aligns with social work and human services, fostering skills in community engagement and support.
