Our volunteers are working hard to compile and send a quarterly newsletter about what’s going on in El Porvenir.  If you would like to be on our email list to receive a copy, please write to us at info@honduraschildren.org.  (Don’t worry, we don’t send out lots of emails . . . just 4-5X a year.)

Views of El Porvenir . . .

March 29, 2010 by admin, under News.

signs in El Porvenir While El Porvenir is a very poor town just west of the small city of La Ceiba, it’s also a very beautiful and active place.  The Caribbean sea is just to the North and the Pico Bonito mountains and waterfalls are just to the south.

There is a lagoon just a short walk from where the volunteers live and it is where the river runs into the sea. . . .   It’s not always so quiet though!  It’s a favorite place for the volunteers and the children to play and swim. view of pico bonito & lagoon 3 view of pico bonito & lagoon26717_522772662566_33500282_30948372_1230464_n
