Mission Statement

By working in partnership with our Honduran brothers and sisters, Honduras Good Works offers our time, commitment and resources to improve the HEALTH of rural Hondurans; assist underserved Honduran youth in getting an EDUCATION; and to nurture the SPIRIT of the Hondurans we serve and the volunteers who serve the Hondurans.

Description

Dr. Don and Bobbi Hopkins conducted their first medical mission trip to Honduras with a team of twenty volunteers. That mission trip has returned every year since, except 2009 when the country’s political crisis caused the cancellation of all mission trips into the country. The team now averages 70-75 people-doctors, dentists, nurses, EMTs, pharmacists, clergy, translators, and support personnel. The medical brigade travels to Honduras in July, spending a week breaking into four-five medical teams that visit different rural villages in the mountains of El Paraiso. In a typical week, the brigades will see on average 2500 patients, although the July 2011 medical teams saw a record-breaking 3,300 patients.
