Thank you for your interest in bringing a team to work with Hope For Honduras. The teams that come to work with us are usually here from Sunday to Sunday. We have team sizes from 10 to 20 people and the ground costs for that week are $800 per person. That is all inclusive....accommodation, ground transportation, food, airport exit tax, tips. You find your team’s best airfare. A team under 10 people has ground costs of $850 for the week. Sorry, we are unable to accommodate individuals at this time.
If you want to build a house or distribute food in one of the colonias, it costs $3,700 for the building and $3500 for the food. Building a house can be done by anyone because we have helpers who pick up the slack. That takes 2-3 days and 4-5 people can work on that project. The house dedication is at the end of the week and your team can do this themselves. We are there with you, but want the heart of each team to come through in this activity. We have an interpreter for this if you need it. There are articles you present to them along with the furnishings we purchase for the new house. It is one of the favorite projects our teams do!!
Distributing food serves around 350 houses with 4-6 people bagging and assembling, and the entire team can help with the distribution. Your team will walk through the colonia personally giving the residents the much needed food. It is great way to get up close and personal with the people who need your help so badly.
We have a Kindergarten Bible Class that members of your team can help with. Our teachers do the lesson and you can reinforce that lesson with crafts, games, songs, etc. You will need to bring all your supplies for that project. There are usually 50 children 4-10 years old in the morning and 50 in the afternoon session. Spanish speakers are a benefit, but not a necessity for this project. Our Director there can help. This class is Monday through Thursday of your week.
The Women's Bible Class is another favorite with the groups. Our Pastor can do the lesson (unless you have someone who would like to do that and we can talk about the subject, etc.) and you can follow up again to reinforce that lesson with crafts....they love it! Again, you will need to bring all your supplies for this project. There are 30-40 women twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday.
That is a brief overview to, hopefully, help you decide if we would be a good fit. Our program is designed to have teams come along side us and our employees to do what we do everyday. That way you get a true missions experience and not one that is created just to keep you busy while you are here. We have a strict schedule we keep and guidelines we give you to help bridge the culture gap while you are here helping us. Our goal is to help develop fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ and we want to make sure we are all on the same page as we work together. You may have many more questions, so please let us know. You can contact us through the "Contact" link, under the side "Connect" section.
