Our Mission: Transforming the City of La Paz
We partner with the people of La Paz, Honduras, to achieve self-sufficiency, healthy living, and dignity through providing clean water, safe houses, and education.
WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
All people deserve clean water, a roof overhead, and the opportunity to provide for their family. We make that happen in Honduras.
In the city of LaPaz 80% 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.
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 and is accredited by the Honduras Ministry of Education. Graduates receive a full High School Diploma making them eligible for University.
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 2013 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.
We install home water filters, and provide water sourcing to families without clean water.
We build new houses for families, protecting them from the elements, and keeping them safe and healthy.
Many people in La Paz don’t have access to the city’s sewage system. We install latrines that are private, safe, and sanitary.
We invest in education. This includes a full high school program, vocational training, and English as a second language.
From Youth Sports Days to Community Family Nights, we invest in the community through events, nutritious meals and sports.
The Gospel of Jesus is the core of our work, but we love and serve people regardless of where they are in their faith. We love Jesus, so we love people.
Firefighters across the US have partnered with the Honduras Fire Service to provide training and equipment.
We are currently developing a 17acre complex that will house a training center, housing for volunteers, and more

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.
