In Honduras, JustWorld has created a positive imprint along the years, by supporting and leading a variety of children outreach programs in the city of Tegucigalpa, as well as in the coastal region of Tornabé, benefiting thousands of at-risk youth on its path.
In Honduras, where JustWorld is a registered NGO, JustWorld supports several local grassroots projects as well as running our own community programs.
• Angelworks provides scholarships for 250 academically high achieving rural Honduran children, particularly girls, to attend school.
• The Mobile Library at Compartir, a local NGO, offers literacy programs as well as access to books to more then 2,000 children in communities in the four main urban slums of Tegucigalpa, the capital city.
• JustWorld runs a classical Honduran painting program, teaching many at-risk children the skills and vocational training to earn an income, while providing them with alternatives to being on the streets and delinquency. Once the paintings are sold, 50 percent of the sales go directly to the artist, and the other 50 percent goes back into sustaining the program.
• JustWorld built the Natalie Johnson Center for a Just World to house JustWorld-initiated and -managed programs serving around 130 children in the coastal Garifuna community of Tornabé, providing tutoring, nutrition, cultural and sports programs.
