HONDURAN PROJECT CELEBRATES 20 YEARS!

Dr Donald Kaminsky, technical advisor of Project Alternatives and Opportunities, wrote to tell us of the 20th birthday celebrations of his project.
Project Alternatives & Opportunities began an integrated community-based service structure for the working children, street children and their families in Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras in 1990. The project has been supported by the Rotary Foundation for much of this time.
In 1997 Caring and Sharing agreed to help, initially through the charity Let The Children Live! which helps street children in Colombia, and then directly from 2001.
Project Alternatives & Opportunities works in the markets of Tegucigalpa and in more recent years has been extended to serve 3 communities which surround the municipal dump. It provides health, education and other social services to an at-risk population of 3,500 which includes 800 adults, the remainder of them children. Caring and Sharing provides funds for a substantial mid-day 'snack' for the children most of whom come from single-mother families. Breakfast is no more than a tortilla and a cup of coffee, so when they arrive at the market and take part in the health education activities of Project Alternatives & Opportunities, the children have a chance to fill the empty hole in their stomachs!
