WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
Everyone deserves opportunity
All people deserve clean water, a roof overhead, and the opportunity to provide for their family. We make that happen in Honduras.
Basic Needs
In the city of LaPaz 80% of people don’t have clean water.
We are changing that. Our teams install water filters, private latrines, and all the basic needs for healthy living.
Education
When the majority of students never go beyond 5th grade, progress is impossible. For girls, the statistics are even worse.
Our High School Program has over 100 students each school year and is accredited by the Honduras Ministry of Education. Graduates receive a full High School Diploma making them eligible for University.
Women’s Empowerment
All of our programs are designed with a single mother in mind.
We invest in women, equipping them to pursue careers that provide a living wage for their families.
WHO WE ARE
HCP was formally established in 2014 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with the mission of helping the poor and underprivileged of Honduras become self-sufficient. We accomplish this by building relationships and meeting the practical needs of people. We organize and send short term mission teams to be hand on when making a difference.

Working with HCP and traveling to Honduras was a life-changing experience. I left a part of me in La Paz, and because of the beautiful people, I am forever changed.
