…uniquely made and gifted, full of dreams and possibility
…born into generational poverty in a rural town in one of the poorest countries of the world
…cherished by their families, who desperately want a better life for them
…waiting for a sponsor to support their education and future
136 children who need loving sponsors to say YES to their hopes, dreams, and potential.
For just $37 per month, you can help a child go from merely surviving to thriving. The gift of education opens up a world of possibility and frees children to dream. Because you care, children and their families can begin to imagine and work toward a future free from the crippling grip of poverty.
Put your compassion into action. As a Sharefish sponsor, you’re helping to transform a generation of children in Honduras, one child at a time.
• 13.5% of children have no access to school.
• Only 30% of children who start first grade go past six grades.
• Honduras has the highest rate of adolescent pregnancy in Central America.
• The World Health Organization calculates that education has the highest return on investment in third world countries.
• The World Bank names education as one of the strongest instruments for reducing poverty and improving health, gender equality, peace, and stability.
• When we started Sharefish, students in El Carrizo entering first grade were significantly delayed in their educational development. They did not know their ABCs, colors, or even how to hold a pencil. These children were behind before they even started.
• In 2016, we opened Aprende Conmigo preschool to give the children in El Carrizo a chance to break the cycle of poverty through education.
• Soon, the children were completing preschool knowing the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors, and most could write their name!
• We recently completed a comprehensive preschool update featuring a colorful, expansive new space.
• Preschoolers are now primed for a successful education journey through our elementary sponsorship program, our middle school and eventually trade school or university.
A life-changing education is now available in El Carrizo, but we need your help. Student sponsorships enable the children to continue to thrive in school and build the future of their dreams!
